Events

Governor Northam has moved the June primary to June 23. (it was June 9). In this primary, we will select our nominee for the 5th district Congressional seat. All voters are encouraged to vote absentee by mail.

The form walks you through it in steps that are pretty straightforward. You do need your driver’s license number (or state ID card number) to allow for an electronic signature on your application.

It is important to enter the correct jurisdiction on the page:
Cville voters must select Charlottesville, Albemarle voters Albemarle, etc.

The online application is found here: https://vote.elections.virginia.gov/VoterInformation

Our five Democrats running in the Congressional primary (June 9th) would have introduced themselves at the Pasta Supper (after serving their pasta sauces). They all agreed to introduce themselves virtually in video form. Here is their information in alphabetical order:
