The research library contains a list of Electoral Board members, General Registrars, and other key individuals involved in the election process in Virginia including some Directors of Election and Assistant and Deputy Registrars, organized by locality (county or independent city).
It is sortable by jurisdiction, Informing Democracy’s Definitions, and position and Electoral Board role.
Note: Information on individuals serving in offices as well as the start and end dates of terms was obtained from the Virginia Board of Elections on June 6, 2023.
The research contained in the library reflects the best available information on individuals. ID’s research process was focused on the individuals’ activities relevant to elections and democracy: we conducted a broad survey of officials’ records and statements related to the administration of Virginia’s elections as well as mis- and disinformation about elections.
The research was conducted primarily between May and September 2023.
UPDATE: This report is a living document based on research, interviews with election officials, and feedback from partners on the ground. Based on such feedback, areas of concern surrounding potential voter disenfranchisement have been removed from this report, pending further research and refinement of its definition. These findings surfaced in Informing Democracy's research, but are tangential to our targeted focus on the vote counting and election certification processes, and merit further study.
