About the School Board Endorsement Vote
This year there will be one open seat for the Arlington County School Board.
The Arlington Democrats will hold a vote of Democratic community members to endorse a candidate for the November General Election ballot. This endorsement vote process is in lieu of a primary because School Board candidates are not listed by Party on the ballot in Arlington. The vote will be held using rules approved by the Committee.
Voting Information
Any registered Arlington voter will be allowed to participate in the committee’s endorsement vote after pledging they are a Democrat and do not intend to support any candidate opposed to a Democratic nominee or endorsee in the General Election. If you wish to vote in this process, fill out a Participation Form.
We will verify your eligibility by cross-checking against your Arlington voter registration information. We will have two in-person voting opportunities and online voting.
