There appeared to be a strong early turnout at Herndon Community Center, one of the polls in the Town of Herndon, early on Nov. 6, 2018, for the midterm election, featuring candidates for the United States Senate and Member of the House of Representatives 11th District, Herndon Mayor and six Members of the Herndon Town Council.

"The local election is a big deal here,” Tom Spears of the Town of Herndon said.

At the time The Connection visited the polling station at the Herndon Community Center, not all party or slate representatives stood outside the site and made their Sample Ballots or recommendation papers available to voters.
