How and where to vote in Florida
Where do you vote?
Enter your Florida street address to see exactly the races and questions on your ballot. The address is sent once to the U.S. Census Bureau's public geocoder and is not stored; your county and district numbers are kept only while this page is open.
Or pick your county and districts manually
County and state legislative districts come from the U.S. Census Bureau's current files. Florida redrew its congressional districts in May 2026 and the Census files predate that map, so the congressional district is marked "confirm" until you check it on the state voter site and enter it manually if needed.
Hurricane Isaias: what it means for voting in 30 Florida counties
Isaias came ashore near Destin on Oct. 9 as a Category 2 hurricane, and a state of emergency covers 30 counties. As of Oct. 27, no election date, deadline or voting rule has been changed because of the storm: the Governor has issued no election order, and the Secretary of State's Oct. 26 update says early voting is under way statewide, with every county open at least Oct. 24-31. The state's daily figures for Oct. 27 show early ballots already cast in all 30 of these counties. Mail ballots must reach your Supervisor of Elections by 7 p.m. on Nov. 3; postmarks do not count, and the deadline to request a mailed ballot passed on Oct. 22. With a week left, it is safer to hand in a mail ballot than to mail it: use a drop box at an early-voting site during early-voting hours, or take it to your Supervisor's office. Panhandle mail service was restored by Oct. 15, except the Valparaiso post office, whose service is still at the Niceville post office. Check your Supervisor of Elections for your county's early-voting sites and hours.
Applies to Baker, Bay, Calhoun, Citrus, Columbia, Dixie, Escambia, Franklin, Gadsden, Gilchrist, Gulf, Hamilton, Hillsborough, Holmes, Jackson, Jefferson, Lafayette, Leon, Levy, Liberty, Madison, Okaloosa, Pasco, Pinellas, Santa Rosa, Suwannee, Taylor, Walton, Wakulla, Washington.

Jackson County: mail-ballot problems after Hurricane Isaias
Supervisor of Elections Carol Dunaway said on Oct. 14 that rain left some voters' return envelopes sealed shut before they could put their ballot in; if that happened to you, call her office for a new envelope, or bring the ballot to the office. Mailing of ballots paused while the Pensacola mail plant was closed and restarted around Oct. 13. The deadline to request a mailed ballot passed on Oct. 22, and a mail ballot must reach the office by 7 p.m. on Nov. 3. If yours has not arrived or is damaged, call the office, or vote early instead: early voting in Jackson County runs through Oct. 31 (the state's figures show 2,740 early ballots cast there as of Oct. 27), and early-voting sites have secure drop boxes for returning mail ballots.

Lake County, Congressional District 6: a candidate was left off some mail ballots
About 9,000 vote-by-mail ballots Lake County sent to voters in Congressional District 6 left off Libertarian candidate Andrew Parrott, and those voters are being sent a postcard about it. If you got one of those ballots and want a corrected one, contact the Lake County Supervisor of Elections; by state law the last day the office could mail a ballot was Oct. 24, so ask about getting one in person. Parrott's name is on the ballot at early voting (through Oct. 31 in Lake County) and on Election Day. This affects only the District 6 race on those Lake County mail ballots.
Applies to Lake.
