Christiansburg Town Council
I know that some people vote only in the years of presidential elections. They feel that is the only important time to vote. But the fact is your vote is going to count for so much more in local elections, particularly this year.
The governor’s race appears to be extremely close, and the election in Christiansburg appears to be even closer. Six individuals are running for three seats on the Christiansburg Town Council, and three candidates are running for the office of mayor.
The results of the election for council and mayor will have an effect on the progress and quality of life for the citizens of Christiansburg for years.
The mayor’s race is particularly important. Voters want to support an individual whom they can trust, who is reliable, and who will make the Town of Christiansburg a place the citizens can be proud of.
People do not have to wait to vote until Nov. 2, 2021. Early voters can vote at the Government
Center any day of the week
The important thing is to study the candidates and vote. This is your town and you have an opportunity to be involved and have a voice.
