Commissioner Steven Koski visited 23 registrar offices in several areas of the Commonwealth over the past three weeks.

From heavily populated areas such as Virginia Beach and Fairfax County to more rural areas in the Shenandoah Valley, election officials face a variety of challenges but all work toward the same goal of keeping Virginia’s elections accurate, fair, open and secure.

Election officials are dedicated public servants who consistently meet changing demands with professionalism and integrity.

Thank you to everyone who works hard to keep our electoral process transparent and trustworthy.
