Early voting kicked off today in Virginia, and voters seem extremely eager to make their selections. Lines are being reported outside of several polling stations, even though there’s no rush: Virginia residents can vote early up until Saturday, October 31. Take a look at some of the voting sites below.
On the first day of early voting, lines at the Fairfax County Government Center are out the door (but don’t worry, there are many more days left to vote early and more locations will open in October). #Election2020 pic.twitter.com/HaR06mAYO5

#EarlyVoting in the Commonwealth of Virginia opened at 8 am today in Arlington County. This is the line just after the central polling place opened. There were about four times as many people behind me as you see in front of me. Game on! Take the #VoterChallengeVA pic.twitter.com/NFoaTcucua
