This is a ranked choice voting election! Instead of just getting to vote for your favorite candidate, you get to rank your back up choices, too. Ranking a second or third choice will not harm your top choice, but it ensures your ballot can still count if your top candidate is eliminated.
Each candidate is listed on a separate row. Mark column 1 for your favorite candidate, column 2 for your second favorite, column 3 for your third favorite, etc. Practice here by ranking your favorite fall flavors.

LOCALITY OVERVIEW
GOVERNING BODY: Board of Supervisors
NUMBER OF MEMBERS: 10
Fairfax County has an elected Board of Supervisors consisting of nine members elected by district, plus a chairman elected at-large. The law requires that districts be of approximately equal population and that the supervisors (other than the chairman) be residents and qualified voters of their districts and be elected only by voters living in those districts. All voters in the county may vote for the chairman. The Board elects the vice chairman annually from among its members at its first meeting in January.
