When I lived in CA and DC I could, but my polling place in VA is over a mile away. Is Virginia in the minority for making it inconvenient to vote by making it difficult to people without cars?
It is weird, but the place we vote takes us PAST two other polling places. One is about 500 feet from our door, but no, we have to drive several miles.
I don’t even have to cross any streets – I vote at the school around the corner.
I have to cross one street and the school’s football field. The sticker they give me makes it more than worth it.
Yes. My backyard ends at the municipal building’s parking lot. Probably a good 150’ walk to vote.
It’s about 6 miles away. I could, but I wouldn’t want to.
I could walk there if I really wanted to, but it’s probably a mile or so distance. If you lived on this side of the township and didn’t have a car, I imagine a lot of folks would find it very inconvenient to get to.
It’s about a mile from my house. I could but haven’t done so.
Yes. Around the corner, about 1/4 of a mile from here in the rec. building of a church.
The village I live in is about 1 mile across and 3 miles long. Everything is within walking distance.
I could if I have to, but we’re in the suburbs and it’s a pretty “car-centric” place.
Also, I recall that it was raining the last few times I voted. No way I’d walk to the church where I vote in that!
It’d be cool if voting was at the high school across the street from me. I THINK our entire ward is just the area that is completely within walking distance of this school. But I have no idea how they would be able to handle voting on a school day.
My voting place is at a church about a block and a half from me. I can walk to it but I also drive right past the church on my way home from work. So I walk if I’m not going into the office on voting day or I drive if I did go in.
We vote in the lobby of our condo building. 
About 50 feet - the one-way distance from the mailbox to my front door. All voting is done via mail.
I live in Virginia. I could walk, although I am not likely to. It’s about a mile. (I live on the very edge of the political jurisdiction, though, so it’s not unreasonable that it be that far.) In the past, I have had distances greater, and in fact have driven by a polling place to reach the one assigned.
Polling in Virginia is done in schools, and in church buildings. (Generally not sanctuaries, but usually other areas associated with the churches.) Arranging such matters is very local in control, and in some cases the polls have been in the same places longer than anyone now living can recall. I think the “Falls Church” after which the Town of Falls Church is named still hosts a polling site. That one predates the Commonwealth of Virginia, not to mention the United States as a polling place. The first elections held there were for the House of Burgesses.

From work: Piece of cake. It’s about 4 blocks.
From home: Not so much fun. About 4 miles.
You win.
I vote in one of the two schools just down the street.
Oddly, the polling place for municipal and provincial elections is in the public school, and that for federal elections in the Catholic school. I remember that because of all the protestors during the last federal election.
Its about two blocks from the house or about 8 minutes walking time.
In my old place in VA, it was about 14 minutes walking time.
Yep mine too, except that’s because I am a permanent absentee, not because my state does it that way. In fact, because I have been in that status since before I moved to my current home, I don’t even KNOW where my polling place would be if I weren’t absentee.
Yep. I vote in the elementary school right across the street from me. If I tried to drive to it, I’d probably have to walk further than I do just walking.
