Supervisor of Elections Lori Scott announces Sample Ballots for the August 30th Primary Election are now available online at www.VoteBrevard.com.

It is important to remember that Florida is a “Closed Primary State.” During a Primary Election, voters receive a ballot listing only the candidates associated with their political party affiliation, as recorded on their voter registration record. Voters can preview and print their Sample Ballot for the upcoming Election by selecting their voting precinct number on the www.VoteBrevard.com website.

“Although Sample Ballots will be mailed to voters prior to the start of Early Voting, the on-line version is an early preview to your August 30th ballot,” said Supervisor Scott. Voters are encouraged to pre-mark their Sample Ballot and bring it to the polls to use as a guide when marking their official election ballot.

Through the www.VoteBrevard.com website, voters can also: verify their voter registration status and party affiliation; request a Vote-by-Mail Ballot; view candidate Campaign Treasurer Reports; get a map to their polling location; and review the list of candidates and Early Voting locations. "I encourage voters to take advantage of the many useful tools on the VoteBrevard.com website," said Supervisor Scott.

Voters have until 29 days before the Primary Election (August 1st), also known as book closing, to register to vote or change their party affiliation should they wish to do so prior to the August 30th Election. Florida Voter Registration Applications are available online at www.VoteBrevard.com.
