FAQs

In-person early voting is available 45 days before elections held in Fairfax County. Check back for locations and schedules for Early Voting in future elections. Unlike election day voting, when voters must vote in their precinct, during early voting, any Fairfax County voter may vote at any Fairfax County early voting location.

No. Any voter registered in Fairfax County may vote early. Students registered in Fairfax County may return from school in another county or state to vote early.

However, to vote normally, you will need to provide your name and address and present an acceptable ID, just as you would at your polling place on election day. If you don’t have an acceptable ID, you may complete an ID Confirmation Statement, which serves as an acceptable ID and will allow you to check in and vote routinely. Alternately, you may vote a provisional ballot and provide a copy of your ID to the Office of Elections before noon on the Friday after the election.

Your ballot is counted when you feed it into the digital scan voting machine. However, the votes on the voting machines are not tallied until election day and are not reported until after 7 p.m. on election night.

No, an absentee ballot application is not used for in-person early voting.

Yes. Pursuant to Virginia Code §24.2-671.2, Fairfax County participated in risk-limiting audits following the 2020 and 2024 general elections, respectively. View reports resulting from of these audits.
