Let’s Get Out the Vote, REALTORS®!
November 3, 2022
Election Day 2022 is right around the corner! Typically, when we think of voting, we think of long lines and a mailbox or a TV screen full of political ads. But, for REALTORS®, the power of voting cannot be overlooked or overstated. Your vote is your voice and when REALTORS® vote for REALTOR® champions, we all win!
Some key things to remember this year:
- Election Day is Tuesday, November 8th. Polls will be open from 6:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. You can look up your polling place here. If you are in line by 7:00 p.m., you will be allowed to vote.
- When voting in person, you will be asked to provide a photo ID. However, if you do not have a photo ID, you can still vote after you sign an ID statement affirming your identity.
- If you know you won’t be able to make it to the polls on November 8th, you can still vote early by in-person absentee by Saturday, November 5th. Check with your local voter registration office to confirm voting hours and location.
- If you are voting with a by-mail ballot, it must be postmarked on or before election day and returned to your voter registrar by noon on Friday, November 11th. You can also check with your local voter registration office about dropping off a by-mail ballot in person.
Feel free to contact us by emailing advocacy@virginiarealtors.org if you have any questions about the 2022 Virginia Elections.
