It’s Election Day and across Arlington County thousands are voting at dozens of polling places staffed by hundreds of volunteers.
So far no issues have been reported at the polls, election officials tell ARLnow.
Turnout may be lighter than usual for a hotly-contested presidential election, on account of 63% of active voters in Arlington having already cast early and mail-in ballots. As of 9:30 a.m., the county elections office said that “an estimated 5% of remaining voters” had voted since the polls opened at 6 a.m.
“Polling places were busy early, but most are running smoothly now,” the elections office said.
On the ballotย in Arlington this year is the presidential race — President Donald Trump (R) facing off against former Vice President Joe Biden (D), plus Libertarian candidate Jo Jorgensen — along with races for U.S. Senate, House of Representatives, County Board and School Board. There are also referenda for two proposed state constitutional amendments and five county bond issuances.
Polls will stay open tonight until 7 p.m.
