7 p.m.

Polls are about to close in one hour. If you haven't voted yet, you still have time.

If you're in the grocery store parking lot and are seeing this just now on your phone, you can find all the information on candidates, voting stations and ID you will need right here. You can make it! 

It all comes down to tonight. 

After campaign pitches, all-candidate forums and social media platforms, public office hopefuls will find out if their hard work has paid off. 

Here at PrinceGeorgeMatters, we will have real-time results as they come in, so be sure to stay with us to get the latest in all three races as soon as polls close at 8 p.m.

Will we see fresh, new faces on council? Will we see a mayor re-elect? Will we see new school board trustees? Time will tell.

If scrolling social media while sitting on your couch is your thing, you can follow us on Twitter, Facebook and Instagram (we'll try our best with the Insta). 

We hope you'll join us!
