Election Set for February 3rd at your local polling place
We have an Election Date!!
Please spread the word to your friends. The election date for the Special Election for the Chairman of the Fairfax County Board of Supervisors has been set. It will be February 3, 2009. Voting will be at your regular polling place from 6 AM to 7 PM. As of today we have 49 days left until the election. Your vote is critical!!
Absentee Voting
Every vote will count in this election and that is why absentee voting is important. In Virginia, you have the ability to make your voice heard earlier by voting absentee, either in person or by mail. If you have a college student, or a family member in the Military who is home for the holidays please encourage him or her to vote while they are still home.
Voting absentee is secure, easy and convenient.
To download an Absentee Ballot Request Form please click here. Please fill out the form and mail or fax it back to the Fairfax County Board of Elections:
Fairfax County General Registrar
12000 Government Center Pkwy, Ste 323
Fairfax, VA 22035-0081
703-324-3725 (Fax)
Below are the qualifications and guidelines for absentee voting:
1. Commuter Rule: If you are going to be commuting or at work for 11 of the 13 hours the polls are open (6 am to 7 pm), you are eligible to vote absentee.
2. Outside of the County on Election Day: If you may be traveling for business or personal reasons and will not be in Fairfax the day of the election, you are eligible to vote absentee.
3. Military: If you or your spouse serve in the military and will not be in Fairfax County on the day of the election, you are eligible.
4. Disabled/Caretaker: If you are disabled or take care of a person who is disabled full time, you are eligible to vote Absentee.
The Registrar has indicated that in-person absentee voting likely will not be available until the middle of January and that it will only be at the Government Center. Students and Military home for the holidays are encouraged to use the mail-in absentee process to insure they have an opportunity to vote in this critical election.
Deadline to register to vote in the February 3rd Special Election is January 3rd. As a reminder the County Government is furloughed and therefore closed on January 2nd in addition to the Holidays.
