How to Vote
You will be able to follow the signs on premises of your polling location to the entrance and locate the check-in table. Simply show your ID and follow instructions given by an election worker to receive a ballot. Proceed to a private station, mark your ballot, place your ballot in a secrecy sleeve, and walk your ballot to the election worker at the ballot scanner. You will place your ballot in the scanner. That’s it!
COVID-19 PRECAUTIONS
All precincts will be adhering to CDC and VDH guidelines. We ask that you wear a face covering, maintain a social distance of 6 feet, stop at a designated area at entrance of the precinct and wait to be called, and use hand sanitizer before and after voting. If you are considered high risk, are 65 or older, have a fever, or feel sick, and still wish to vote in-person, please vote curbside fromyour vehicle.
REMINDER: BRING YOUR ID!
Virginia law requires all voters to provide an acceptable form of ID when voting in person. Voters arriving at the polls without an acceptable form of ID will be required to either sign an ID Confirmation Statement or vote a provisional ballot.
ACCESSIBLE VOTING
Every citizen has the right to vote regardless of whether he or she is affected by a disability. Bristol, VA is dedicated to providing accessible voting to all registered voters. If you are 65 or older, or have a physical disability, you may vote early or on Election Day without leaving your vehicle. This is called curbside voting. If you would like to use curbside voting, remember to bring a helper with you who can enter the polling place to ask an election officer for curbside assistance.
