There was a steady follow of voters turning out to Pembroke Elementary School to cast their vote which is one of hundreds of polling throughout the region.
Political campaign signs lined the street outside.
Virginia Beach resident Darl Anderson said he has been voting at the same polling location for 56 years.
He said voting is important and called the political ads "crap."
“Young people need to read the constitution," said voter Ron Bostic. "That’s what our system of government is based on.”
Voter Brittney Greene said she thought this was going to be a great election.
