Virginia Early Voting (repost)

[westerebus]

1. The deadlines for absentee ballots for the November 3, 2020 General and Special Elections;

Absentee ballot by mail application: 5:00 p.m. Friday, October 23, 2020.

Early voting: 5:00 p.m. Saturday, October 31, 2020.

Absentee ballots returned to local general registrar’s office postmarked by: 7:00 p.m. Tuesday, November 3, 2020. (must arrive by noon on the third day following the election.)

Note: Your local general registrar’s office is open on Saturday, October 31, 2020, for early voting. Please check the hours of your local office as the Saturday hours may vary. Some localities provide additional locations for early voting.



the USPS delivery standards changed last year so that First Class delivery went from 1-3 days to 2-5 days and Standard delivery is now 2-9 days. Please keep this in mind, as the ballot must be received by your local general registrar no later than 12:00 PM on the third day following Election Day.

Having the ballot postmarked by the deadline does not count if the ballot is still received after the deadline.
