FAIRFAX, Virginia (PNN) - September 20, 2024 - Early voting in Virginia was underway on Friday morning.

There was huge enthusiasm for President Donald J. Trump in Fairfax, Virginia on Friday. Trump supporters dominated the polling location in Fairfax County.

President Trump lost Virginia by 5 points in 2016 against Hillary Clinton and supposedly lost the Commonwealth again in 2020 against Biden (though Trump actually won Virginia in 2020).

However, the Trump Campaign says Virginia is in play this election, calling the Commonwealth a swing state.

Trump supporters waved flags outside of the Fairfax County Government Center as people lined up to vote in the 2024 general election.

The line of voters stretched from the door to the parking lot according to WTOP.

In-person voting in Virginia for the Nov. 5 general election begins Friday morning and continues through Saturday, Nov. 2. Thirteen electoral college votes are at stake in Virginia in the presidential contest, but so much more is at stake.

The Fairfax County Government Center is usually very popular with early voting. It is anticipating long lines again this week.

In addition to the 2024 presidential race, Virginia residents will be voting in all 11 congressional districts; a U.S. Senate seat and House Representative are also up for grabs.

The ballot also includes an amendment to the Constitution of Virginia and a handful of local offices.
