Stafford County this week released information about the January 13 special election to fill the District 23 House of Delegates seat vacated by Candi Mundon King, who has been tapped by Governor-Elect Abigail Spanberger for a cabinet position.
District 23 includes northern Stafford and southern Prince William County. The following eight Stafford precincts can vote in the special election at the following locations:
205 – Mount Ararat: Mt. Ararat Baptist Church, 1112 Garrisonville Road
301 – Staffordboro – Anne E. Moncure Elementary School, 120 Juggins Road
302 – Widewater – Widewater Elementary School, 101 Den Rich Road
303 – Barrett Heights – RELOCATED to Porter Branch of the Central Rappahannock Regional Library, 2001 Parkway Boulevard
304 – Aquia Episcopal – Aquia Episcopal Church, 2938 Richmond Highway
305 – Griffis – Kate Waller Barrett Elementary School, 150 Duffey Drive
306 – Midway – Shirley Heim Middle School, 320 Telegraph Road
406 – Aquia - UFCM Church Auxiliary Building, 60 Susa Drive, Unit 117
Since four of the precincts are located in county schools, which will be in session that day, the county is asking that voters “plan ahead and be mindful of limited parking and busy campuses.”
It also recommends voting outside of school hours (before 7 a.m. or after 3 p.m.), taking advantage of early voting, which begins January 5 at the General Registrar’s Office (124 Old Potomac Church Road, Suite 205), or casting an absentee ballot in the drop box at the registrar’s office. Voters can request absentee ballots now.
Prince William County Supervisor Margaret Angela Franklin won this month’s Democratic caucus to select a nominee for the ballot. She will be opposed by Republican Verndell Robinson, a real estate agent and former candidate for the Prince William Board of County Supervisors.
More information about voting in the special election in Stafford is at the registrar’s website. A sample ballot is here.
