Register to vote today to make your voice heard on Nov. 8.

On November 8, Virginians will have the opportunity to elect candidates for the U.S. House of Representatives and – in some areas – “down-ballot” offices. Faithful citizenship reminds us to take an active part in public life through our voice and our vote.  

If you will be 18 or older on November 8, we encourage you to register to vote, or update your data. Please see below for important deadlines for registration/updates and to request an absentee ballot.
