Three proposed constitutional amendments will appear statewide in Virginia’s Nov. 3, 2026, General Election.

Key takeaways
Virginia voters will consider three proposed constitutional amendments in the General Election on Nov. 3, 2026. The amendments will appear statewide, meaning voters across Virginia will have the opportunity to vote on them.
The same election also includes races for the U.S. Senate and U.S. House. Those federal contests are separate from the constitutional amendment questions. The amendment portion of the ballot concerns proposed changes to Virginia’s Constitution rather than choices between candidates.
No amendment results exist before voting takes place. Each of the three proposals will receive its own statewide result, independent of the results in the Senate and House races. A result for one amendment will not serve as the result for either of the other two proposals.
Election Day is Tuesday, Nov. 3, 2026. Voters will make a separate choice on each proposed amendment appearing on the statewide ballot.
The amendment results will show how Virginia voters decided each proposal. Because the questions are statewide, their results will reflect votes cast across Virginia rather than votes from a single congressional district.
The results should be read separately: one outcome for each of the three constitutional amendment questions. The U.S. Senate race and individual U.S. House races will also have their own results from the same General Election. Until the Nov. 3 vote occurs, none of the proposed amendments can be described as having passed or failed in the 2026 General Election.
