Voting FAQ
Who can vote by mail?
Any qualified and registered voter can vote by mail, you do not need an excuse! You must request a vote-by-mail ballot in order to participate. Make sure you put it back in the secrecy sleeve and sign the ballot!
How can I request a ballot?
A request for a vote by mail ballot may be made in any of the following ways:
- By telephone call to Supervisor of Elections – 407-836-2070
- Online application on the Supervisors of Elections’ website – here
- By writing (e.g., by email, fax, mail) to Supervisor of Elections
- In person at Supervisor of Elections
When is the last day I can register to vote by mail?
The deadline to request a vote by mail ballot is no later than 5 p.m. on the 12th day before the election. The ballot must be received by the Supervisor of Elections no later than 7 p.m. on Election Day to be counted. Exceptions exist for overseas military and civilian voters. See Military and Overseas Citizens Voting for further information.
How should I return my vote by mail ballot?
It is safe and secure to mail your ballot back. Once you receive your ballot, make sure to fill out the whole ballot, sign the envelope, and put it in the mail as soon as you can to ensure that it is counted.

What if I change my mind and want to vote in person?
If you decide you want to vote in person, applying for a vote by mail does not mean that you can not vote at a polling place! When you go in person, you should bring your vote by mail ballot with you and turn it in to your poll workers to be destroyed so that your in-person vote is counted.
