Some vote-by-mail reminders
The Hillsborough County Supervisor of Elections’ Office provides these Vote By Mail reminders, on its website:
- Don’t forget to sign your Vote By Mail envelope before returning it.
- Make sure you have a current signature on file with your Supervisor of Elections Office. You can update your signature by completing a printed or online voter registration application. (An online application will add your most recent Florida Driver License or Florida State ID signature to your voter record.)
- Be consistent when signing your mail ballot return envelope. Signatures are compared to those on file with the elections office.
- You may mail your ballot back or drop it off at your local elections offices or Early Voting sites (during Early Voting).
- Check with your local elections office for more information on drop-off locations.
- If you mail the ballot back, make sure to allow plenty of time for it to be received. It’s a good idea that you allow at least a week for your mailed ballot to reach your elections office. If your ballot isn’t in your county’s elections office by 7 p.m., Election Day, it will not be counted.
