The upcoming June 12 Dual Primary Election explained

 

Voters will head to the polls on June 12 for a dual Primary Election where Republicans and Democrats may vote candidates to compete in Fall 2018 elections.

Voters will only be able to choose one candidate, whether it be a Democrat or Republican. Virginia does not require voters to register by party.

Monday, May 21 is the last day to register to vote in the June Primary. June 5 is the last day to request an absentee ballot.

A video in this post made by the Prince William Office of Elections explains the process.

Here’s a local list of races and candidates who will appear on the ballot June 12. You can also use the Virginia Department of Election’s “What’s on my ballot” tool to see view a sample ballot that you will see at your polling place.
