Election Day is Every Tuesday: Apr 20-26, 2026
Who's ready to vote YES, Virginia
New week, new elections — actually, they’re not new cause most of them have had early voting, but I digress.
I certainly hope you know about one of the elections this week, and that, of course, would be VA redistricting referendum, but, of course that’s not all.
On Tue, there is a recall in CO, several municipal in FL, School Board in NJ (including Newark which had a 3% turnout when I started this whole election guide thing in 2023), and finally on Sat is a municipal race in DE.
As always, every single race matters, no matter how small. So make sure to vote!
Let’s get started!
Early voting this week: OH, NE, SD midterm primaries, AZ and TX elections, MI special, and TN state and local primary. Please vote early if you can!
