“Super Tuesday” is in March — but Fairfax County is reminding voters about absentee voting and seeking election officers now.
Absentee voting for the 2020 presidential primary starts later this week on Friday, Jan. 17.
The deadline to register to vote in the March 3 primary is Feb. 10. People can check their voter eligibility on the Virginia State Board of Elections website.
Last week, the county announced that it needs 2,100 election officers for the primary.
The Office of Elections especially is looking for bilingual officers who speak Korean or Vietnamese for the Falls Church area, along with Annadel and Centreville, according to the county.
Election officers help set up voting equipment, check photo IDs and tabulate poll results. Compensation starts at $175 or people can choose to volunteer their time.
Vienna police say residents in the Town of Vienna have had their packages stolen recently by a masked person.
The package thefts occurred last Tuesday (Jan. 7) shortly before 1 p.m.
Vienna police say a package containing underwear was taken from a front porch in the 500 block of Plum Street SW.
A few minutes later, a package with jewelry was taken from a front porch in the 600 block of Birch Street SW, police said.
Security cameras caught the incidents on tape and showed “a masked individual,” police said. Vienna police believe the two incidents are related.
“The man fled the area in a vehicle that was driven by another unknown person,” police said about the second incident.
