A vote-by-mail ballot may be requested for a specific election or for all elections through the next regularly scheduled General Election year. The request can be made in person, by postal mail, by fax, by electronic mail or by telephone. Only the voter or designated member of his or her immediate family or legal guardian can request a vote-by-mail ballot for the voter. Immediate family means the voter's spouse or the parent, child, grandparent, grandchild or sibling of the voter.

A request from the voter must include the following information:

  • Voter's date of birth
  • Voter's Florida Driver's License Number, Florida Identification Card Number or the last four digits of the voter's social security number
  • Address where the ballot should be mailed
  • The specific elections you are requesting
  • Voter's signature (written requests only)

If the voter has designated an immediate family member or legal guardian to request a vote-by-mail ballot, that designee must provide the above information in addition to the following:

  • The requester's name
  • The requester's address
  • The requester's relationship to the voter
  • The requester's Florida Driver's License Number, Florida Identification Card Number or the last four digits of the requester's social security number, if available
  • The requester's signature (written requests only)

Can I Pick Up My Vote by Mail Ballot?

A voter may pick up their ballot once the Supervisor of Elections has printed and made your ballot available.  You have until the day before the election to pick up your ballot.  Starting nine (9) days prior to the day of the election, any voter may designate in writing a person to pick up their ballot.  The designated person may not pick up more than two Vote by Mail ballots per election, other than the designee’s own ballot, except for ballots being picked up for the designee’s immediate family. The designee has to provide written authorization from the voter and picture identification.  The Affidavit to Pick-Up a Vote by Mail Ballot for a Voter must also be completed that states the designee has been authorized by the voter to pick up their ballot.  The designee will need to indicate their relationship to the voter.
