There will be a Republican primary on June 23 to choose an opponent for Senator Mark Warner in November. The candidates are Daniel Gade, Thomas Speciale and Alissa Baldwin. There is no Democratic Primary.

In person voting will be available. The deadline to vote early in person is June 20. You can also get an absentee ballot application for either election mailed to you. Covid is a viable “illness disability excuse.” The Election Office cautions that it can take up to 10 days for a voter to receive a ballot after requesting, and voters should not mail back a completed ballot with less than 10 days before the election. Drop off locations will also be available, including at our Aurora Hills Community Center, 735 18th St S, June 18 3-6pm.

For more details on the candidates, see the nonpartisan information provided by The League of Women Voters of Arlington.
