Virginia

2026

This bill removes the ban on accepting property and services from private individuals or nongovernmental groups to support voter education, outreach, registration, or other election-related expenses. However, if the donation is money or a grant greater than $1,000, the election office may only accept it if a two-thirds majority of the State Board of Elections or the local governing body approves. The bill aims to allow more flexibility in receiving private support for elections while adding oversight for larger financial contributions.
