As an unincorporated community, Indian Valley does not hold separate municipal elections for mayor or town council. Instead, residents vote in Floyd County, Virginia state, and federal elections. Floyd County elections include the Board of Supervisors, Constitutional Officers (Sheriff, Commonwealth's Attorney, Clerk of Circuit Court, Commissioner of the Revenue, Treasurer), and School Board members. Virginia holds elections on a schedule that includes state legislative elections (House of Delegates and State Senate) in odd-numbered years and federal elections in even-numbered years. Indian Valley voters can locate their assigned polling place using the Virginia Department of Elections polling place lookup tool at https://vote.elections.virginia.gov or by contacting the Floyd County Registrar at (540) 745-9324. Polling places are typically open from 6:00 AM to 7:00 PM on Election Day. In the November 2024 presidential election, Floyd County reported voter turnout of approximately 60-65% of registered voters, with the county favoring Republican candidates consistent with its conservative rural character. The November 3, 2026 general election will be a midterm election in which Virginia voters will decide races for all 11 Virginia U.S. House of Representatives seats (Indian Valley is in Virginia's 9th Congressional District), all 100 Virginia House of Delegates seats (Indian Valley is in the 8th District), and half of the 40 Virginia State Senate seats if the district is up for election. Floyd County constitutional officers whose terms expire in 2027 will be on the 2026 ballot, potentially including the Sheriff, Commonwealth's Attorney, Commissioner of the Revenue, Treasurer, and Clerk of Circuit Court—these elections are held in November 2027 but candidates file in 2026. Virginia's gubernatorial election is not until November 2025 (already held), and the state does not have U.S. Senate elections in 2026 as both Virginia senators (Tim Kaine and Mark Warner) have terms expiring in other years. Virginia offers absentee voting both by mail and in-person early voting. To request an absentee ballot, voters can apply online through the Virginia Department of Elections portal, by mail, or in person at the Floyd County Registrar's office.
