Florida’s 14.3 million registered voters are eligible to vote in this month’s election, but some may not know where and when to vote because of recent election law changes and the 2021 redistricting process. 

As early voting begins statewide this Saturday, Aug. 13, Common Cause Florida urges voters to spend time now to make a plan of how they will vote. 

This year’s Aug. 23 election includes non-partisan school board, judicial and local races as well as primary elections to select party slates of state and federal candidates for the November general election. All registered voters can cast votes in the non-partisan races, while only those registered with political parties can vote in Florida’s closed party primaries.  (You can look up your ballot and voter precinct information 这里.) 

Common Cause Florida Program Director Amy Keith has been training election protection volunteers around the state to ensure every eligible Floridian can vote without issue. 

“Every election is important, and this coming primary election is a chance for the nearly 14.3 million registered voters in Florida to shape the future of our state,” Keith said. “Please make a plan now for how you’ll vote and share credible, accurate information about how to vote with your loved ones, neighbors and community members.”
