I would like to learn something about candidates before Nov 5 voting, but I could not find sample ballot on this link: https://www.fairfaxcounty.gov/elections/november-2019-sample-ballots-ballot-style-number

It seems the link(not ending with html) cannot be opened, but you can copy and paste the link.

Thanks.


Below is my voting information:
Voting Precinct
Keene Mill (129)
Polling Place
Keene Mill Elementary School
6310 Bardu Ave

Two other places to look are the state board of elections site, https://www.elections.virginia.gov/ as well as the Fairfax League of Women Voters, https://www.lwv-fairfax.org/. They use to put out a publication prior to elections with basic info and questions of all the candidates. Don’t know if they still do in this era of internet or not.

This is not really my question. I would like to know who are on my ballot on Nov 5, not all the ballots are same across the Virginia. Take 2016 for example, you have presidential candidates and congressional candidates, sure you have same presidential candidates on all ballot, but you have different congressional candidates between Fairfax and Richmond.

Now my question is simple: when I go to vote on Nov 5, they will give me the ballot on site. But now I would like to know where to get the electronic version of ballot before Nov 5, so that I have time to search the candidates' policy.

Thanks.

https://www.vote411.org/ is a good place to start. You can enter your address and get a list of your candidates, plus other issues on your ballot (referenda, bonds, etc.) I had to go looking in lots of different places for information about each candidate, though. It was surprisingly challenging to find some of their policy positions!

I googled the wrong thing, but you beat me to it. If anyone else in Fairfax County needs it, here’s what I found, https://www.fairfaxcounty.gov/electi...t-style-number
