The 1994 Virginia State Elections took place on Election Day, November 8, 1994, the same day as the U.S. Senate and U.S. House elections in the state. The only statewide elections on the ballot were three constitutional referendums to amend the Virginia State Constitution. Because Virginia state elections are held on off-years, no statewide officers or state legislative elections were held. All referendums were referred to the voters by the Virginia General Assembly.

Question 1

This amendment asked voters to extend the statutory time period for bringing civil lawsuits which involve intentional injuries to minors.
