Mail-in Voting

Anyone can request a mail-in ballot. The deadline to request that a vote-by-mail ballot be mailed is no later than 5 p.m. on the 10th day before the election. A Supervisor of Elections must mail the ballot out within 2 business days after a request. The last day for a Supervisor to be able to mail out a ballot is 8 days before the election.

A request for a vote-by-mail ballot may be made in one of the following ways:

• By signed writing (e.g., mail, fax, or scanned attachment to an email) to Supervisor of Elections
• In person at Supervisor of Elections’ office
• By phone to Supervisor of Elections

The voter’s request must include the following information:

• The voter’s name;
• The voter’s date of birth;
• The voter’s address (If the request is to mail the ballot to an address other than the one on file, the request must be a signed writing. An exception exists for absent uniformed service voter or an overseas voter seeking a vote-by-mail ballot and for those living in a county that was affected by the recent hurricanes);
•  
• The voter’s Florida driver license, Florida identification card, or last four digits of the elector’s social security number, whichever may be verified in the supervisor’s records;
• The voter’s signature (if the request is written).
