A Democratic Party primary election for state and local offices will be held in Loudoun County Tuesday, June 20, 2023. Election officials remind voters of six key things to know ahead of the election.

1. Know When to Vote

  • Polls in Loudoun County will be open from 6:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m., Tuesday, June 20, 2023. 
  • Early voting continues in Loudoun through Saturday, June 17. Locations and hours for early voting are online at loudoun.gov/VoteEarly.
  • Completed absentee ballots may be returned by mail (postmarked no later than June 20) or dropped off at the 24/7 drop box at the Office of Elections and Voter Registration, 750 Miller Drive SE, Leesburg, or at early voting sites. 
  • Voters may also drop off their ballots at any polling place up to 7:00 p.m. on June 20.

2.  Know Where to Vote

  • Loudoun County’s new election districts, which were created as part of the redistricting process following the 2020 U.S. census, will be used for the first time in the June 20 primary. Earlier this year, voters received notices by mail from the Office of Elections and Voter Registration indicating their precinct and polling information. Election officials ask that voters check the notice for their voting location. 
  • Several precincts have temporary locations for the June primary only: 
    • Precinct 208 – Algonkian will vote at River Bend Elementary School,  46240 Algonkian Parkway, Sterling 
    • Precinct 209 – Potomac Falls will vote at River Bend Elementary School,  46240 Algonkian Parkway, Sterling 
    • Precinct 505 – Cool Spring will vote at Office of Elections, 750 Miller Drive, SE, Suite 150, Leesburg 
  • In addition, Precinct 307 – Middleburg will vote at the Middleburg American Legion Post 295, located at 111 The Plains Road, until construction of the new Middleburg Town Hall is complete. 

Anyone who is not sure about where to vote may check their voter registration card or look up their polling place and related information online at vote.elections.virginia.gov. A list of polling places in Loudoun is available at loudoun.gov/polls.  

Also, curbside voting is available at all polling places for individuals who have mobility issues. 

3. Bring Identification

Voters will be asked to show an acceptable form of identification, such as a Virginia DMV-issued driver’s license. Voters who do not have an acceptable form of ID can sign an ID statement affirming their identity and they will be able to vote a regular ballot.  

4.  Know Who is on the Ballot

Offices on the ballot include Democratic Party nominees for Commonwealth’s Attorney and members of the State Senate in Districts 31 and 32 and the House of Delegates in District 26.  Sample ballots are online at loudoun.gov/UpcomingElections.

5. Know Who Can Vote

All registered voters in Loudoun County are eligible to vote in the primary election as Virginia does not register by party affiliation.
