Notes: Party estimated for registered voters who have cast early ballots as of six days before the election each year. VPAP matched the voter IDs in the Virginia Dept. of Elections early voting file with data provided by L2 Political, which estimates the likely party of voters based on factors such as past participation in primary elections and demographics. Virginia does not require voter registration by party, so estimates must be used.
