Voter Toolkit

Voting locations are open from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. on Election Day.

Please remember to bring your Voter Information Card with you to vote. Though it's not required, it may help to speed up the process.

When you go vote, whether at an early voting site or on Election Day, you must have a current and valid ID that has your name, photo and signature. Acceptable ID includes:

• Florida Driver's License
• Florida ID card issued by the Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles
• United States Passport
• Debit or credit card
• Military ID
• Student ID
• Retirement center ID
• Public assistance ID
• Neighborhood Association ID
• Florida concealed-weapon license
• Veteran Health ID Cards from the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs
• Government-issued employee ID

Your ID will only be used to confirm your identity and to make sure the signature matches what's in the voter system. Your ID will not be used to compare the information to your voter ID number or address.

If you do not have valid ID, or if you're not in our system, do not leave. Ask an election worker to call the Elections office to see if you can vote using a provisional ballot.

When you vote, be sure to completely fill in the oval next to your selection.

Before casting your ballot into the optical scan unit, be sure to check both sides of your ballot page or pages to make sure that your choices are accurate.

On Election Day, you will check-in with a poll worker. You will then be given a paper ballot and taken to a privacy booth to vote.

Bubble in your votes by filling in the ovals next to your choices. Afterwards, insert the paper ballot into the optical scan unit, which scans the ballot to cast your vote. The optical scan unit is user-friendly, and will allow you to redo your ballot if you have a blank ballot or if you voted too many times in one or more of the contests on the ballot.

ADA touchscreen units are available for people with disabilities.
