Make your plan to vote
| OCT 22 | Vote by mail. Request your mail ballot from your county Supervisor of Elections by 5 p.m. Then return it so it’s received by 7 p.m. on Election Day. |
| OCT 24–31 | Vote early. Early voting runs at least these dates in every Florida county; many counties open earlier or stay open longer. Check your county’s sites and hours. |
| NOV 3 | Election Day. Polls are open 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. Vote at your assigned precinct and bring a photo ID with your signature. |
| Don’t stop at the candidates. Amendment 3 is on every Florida ballot — and it would cut $11.86 billion a year from the local budgets that fund our services. Flip your ballot over and vote NO on 3. |

Election Day: November 3, 2026 VOTE THE WHOLE BALLOT. VOTE UNION. |
