Please note:

  • Dates and times are subject to change. 
  • The City of Plant City holds municipal elections each year on the first Tuesday after the first Monday in April. In 2024, one candidate qualified without opposition and has been deemed elected
  • Florida is a "closed primary" state. That means only voters registered with a political party may vote in that party's Primary Election. You can change your party affiliation by submitting an updated Voter Registration Application at any time, but the change must be made 29 days before a Primary Election in order to be valid for that election. All registered voters, regardless of party affiliation, may vote on issues and nonpartisan races during a Primary Election. Your party does not affect your ballot for any election other than a Primary Election.
