If you haven't returned your mail ballot yet, we recommend you drop it off at any of our offices (during office hours) or Early Voting sites (during Early Voting hours). All mail ballots must be in our office (not postmarked) by 7 p.m. November 8. Once you've requested Vote By Mail, you can track your ballot to see when we mail it out and when we receive it back. The deadline to request a mail ballot has passed, but ballots can be printed over-the-counter at any of our offices. 


Not able to get out to vote? You may designate someone to pick up a Vote By Mail Ballot for you. 

Beginning five days before Election Day, you can designate someone to pick up your Vote By Mail ballot for you. Your designee will need a written request from you and a photo ID, and will be asked to complete this affidavit. On Election Day, you also have to complete this Election Day Absentee Ballot Delivery Affidavit to affirm that an emergency is keeping you from being able to vote in your assigned polling place.

Our Canvassing Board Meeting Schedule was updated on October 28. The update can be found in this legal notice. Our public logic and accuracy test, also noticed on this schedule, was successfully conducted on October 18. 

Safe and Secure Elections

 

Supervisor of Elections Craig Latimer talks about safe and secure elections. 

Debunking a myth: Florida does not use SmartMatic voting equipment. In Florida, voting systems are vigorously tested and if meeting the standards in law and rules, certified by the state before they can be purchased and used by counties in any election. A list of voting systems in use by all 67 counties is available on the Division of Elections website: http://dos.myflorida.com/elections/voting-systems/about-voting-systems/.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:

Q: Why doesn't my General Election ballot have Amendment No. 4 on it?
A: State legislators voted to put Amendment No. 4 on the Primary Election ballot. 

Q: Are Vote By Mail ballots always counted?
A:  Yes. By law, all Vote By Mail ballots are counted. In fact, they are the first votes we report on Election Night. 

Q: Why does Hillsborough County publish voting material in English and Spanish? 
A:  Hillsborough County is a "covered jurisdiction" under the Language Minority Groups provision of the Voting Rights Act, so we are required by law to publish voting material in both English and Spanish.
