Voters’ Guide
The FXBG Advance is pleased to provide this Voters’ Guide to the citizens of Fredericksburg, Spotsylvania and Stafford.
This page will be atop our website through November 7, Election Day, so you can always find out more about voting and the candidates running by going to our website.
This guide lists candidates by the office they’re seeking, and the county they’re running in. Where FXBG Advance has an interview with the candidate, we link to that by hyperlinking their name. For interviews that we’ve conducted or plan to conduct, there is a note next to the candidate’s name. Finally, next to each candidate’s name (when a seat is contested) is a link to the campaign website set off by brackets.
With redistricting this year, there are many questions about what district people are in. You can click here for an interactive map that shows how the districts have changed.
To find the district that you’re registered in, click here. And if you need help with your polling location, check out this link.
To submit a correction or update, email the editor.

Thank you for the voters guide. In all my seven decades I have never seen such maneuvering of candidates. Your help in keeping track of what has become a moving target will be most helpful.
