Welcome to Charlottesville Tomorrow’s 2023 Central Virginia Voter Guide!

Last updated Nov. 29, 2023

This guide covers 158 local and state races in Charlottesville and 12 central Virginian counties. (It doesn’t include the greater Richmond area because there are more media outlets there that provide information.)

Polls in Virginia close at 7 p.m. Tuesday, Nov. 7, night. The Virginia Department of Elections will publish election results in real time, as they arrive from precincts around the state. To view them, head to this link. These are unofficial results until they are certified. Here’s more about how to get election results.

Our goal with this guide is to help as many people participate in our democracy as possible. First, we got feedback from over 200 of you about what to ask candidates for local offices this year — from boards of supervisors to clerks of court. Then we sent curated questions to candidates that have been certified by the Virginia Department of Elections.

On the map below, you can enter the address where you are registered to vote to find the ones on your ballot, or scroll though by county, city, town or statewide district. Enter your full address and then tap the marker that appears on the map. Then click to see information about the races and candidates that will be on your ballot.
