PRINCE WILLIAM COUNTY, Va. — County leaders in Prince William want to move voting precincts following last fall’s election that saw record voter turnout.
According to county documents, officials received several complaints from those who work at the Elks Lodge at 14602 Minnieville Road in Woodbridge following last November’s Presidential Election. On Election Day, there were too few parking spaces, and the number of voters in the precinct outweighed the capacity for the building at the lodge.
