ALEXANDRIA, VA – The Office of Voter Registration and Elections wants to hear from voters. The office is seeking feedback regarding Election Day precincts in the West End. A proposal, according to an Alexandria eNews bulletin, “would add two new West End precincts to help lower the per-precinct voter count and reduce wait times.”

Feedback can be submitted in the following ways:

You can attend the Public Feedback and Information Session on August 8, 2023, from 6:00 PM to 8:00 PM, at the Redella S. “Del” Pepper Community Resource Center. The Redella S. “Del” Pepper Community Resource Center is located at 4850 Mark Center Drive, Alexandria, VA 22311.
You can complete this survey: (https://www.research.net/r/AlexandriaVAprecinctfeedback) This survey will be available through August 21st.
If you cannot attend the Public Feedback and Information Session and/or cannot access the survey link, please contact the Office of Voter Registration and Elections at 703-746-4050 to request a physical copy of the survey.

The proposed changes only affect the location of a resident’s polling place.

Three of four precincts west of I-95 have roughly 5,000 voters. Virginia law states if more than 4,000 voters visit a precinct during a presidential elections, it must be broken into smaller ones.
