2020 Democratic Presidential Sample Ballot

The Democratic Party is the only party holding a Presidential Primary in Virginia. The Republican Party chose to select delegates to their national convention at a state convention. Because Virginia doesn’t require voters to state their party when registering, any registered Virginia voter can cast a ballot in the Democratic Presidential Primary.

Please be aware of the new Voter Photo ID Requirements - Effective July 1, 2014. Voters must now present a Photo ID before voting.
