This week in-brief
Students participate in early voting ahead
of Virginia governor race
CD News Staff Student organizations such as University Democrats and College Republicans
have been organizing events to energize and inform voters in an effort to increase
voter turnout in the hotly-contested Virginia governor’s race. The race pits former
governor and Democrat Terry McAuliffe against Republican Glenn Youngkin, former
chief executive officer of the Carlyle Group, a global investment firm.
While in the past, voters were required to have a reason for voting early or by
mail, new laws that went into effect July 1 scrapped that requirement in order to
increase accessibility to the polls and boost voter turnout. Virginia voters are per-
mitted to vote early in-person during the 45-day period before Election Day Nov. 2,
according to the Virginia Board of Elections.
Student Council’s Legislative Affairs Committee plans to allocate $1,500 towards
transportation funding for early voting, as well as $350 towards voting efforts and
resources. In a Sept. 30 email, Abel Liu, president of Student Council and fourth-
year College student, said Student Council will also sponsor free Uber and Lyft rides
to local early voting sites.
University Democrats are hosting voter registration drives multiple times a week
and so far have signed up hundreds of students on Grounds to register to vote. Later
this month, the organization plans to coordinate carpool services to polling stations
for students throughout early voting and Election Day.
College Republicans also plan to take students to the Charlottesville City Regis-
trar to register to vote in-person and walk students through requesting an absentee
ballot.
Though classes will be held on Election Day this year, there will be no classes on
Election Day 2022 and future elections going forward as a result of years of lobbying
and advocacy by students, student organizations and professors.

Students’ guide to the Farmers Market at IX Art Park
How students explore the different vendors at one of Charlottesville’s favorite farmers markets
Elise Kim & Grace Park | Food Writers
With the fall weather slowly
approaching, now is the perfect
time to explore one of Char-
lottesville’s most popular at-
tractions, the farmers market,
to relax with friends or unwind
in solitude. The Farmers Market
at IX Art Park, which is just a
10-minute walk from the Down-
town Mall, is one of the many
markets in the city. Other mar-
kets include the Charlottesville
City Market and Farmers in the
Park. As a first-timer this past
Saturday, I was surprised to see
the abundance and variety of
vendors. Not only is the market a
great way to eat delicious locally
sourced foods and buy from local
businesses, but it is also a way to
give back to the Charlottesville
community.
The market is open every Sat-
urday from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. and
is home to over 60 local vendors
selling artisan goods, fresh pro-
duce, prepared food and more.
The website provides a compre-
hensive list of all the vendors
and some COVID-19 policies to
follow — including keeping a dis-
tance of six feet from others and
masking up.
I showed up right at 9 a.m.,
and I was surprised to find that
the market was already crowded
with both visitors and vendors. It
