Early Voting Extended

October 29, 2008

Early voting hours have been extended at the Escambia County’s four early voting locations. Governor Crist issued an executive order Tuesday mandating the change in schedule throughout the state.

Early voters may cast their ballots today through Saturday, November 1st, from 7:00 a.m. until 7:00 p.m. Early voters can choose any one of the four sites:

  • Supervisor of Elections Office, 213 Palafox Place, second floor.
  • Supervisor of Elections branch office, 292 Muscogee Road, Cantonment.
  • Lucia M. Tryon Branch Library, 5740 N. Ninth Ave.
  • Southwest Branch Library, 12248 Gulf Beach Highway.

Wednesday is the last day to request an absentee ballot, which can be obtained by contacting the Supervisor of Elections by mail, phone (850-595-3900), e-mail (absentee@escambiavotes.com), fax (850-595-3914), or by using the online form at www.EscambiaVotes.com. Requests must include the voter’s date of birth and the address
where the ballot should be mailed. Requests must be received no later than Wednesday, October 29th. Voted ballots must be received in the Elections Office no later than 7:00 p.m. on Election Day.

The third option for voters is to cast a paper ballot at their precinct on Election Day. Polls will be open from 7:00 a.m. until 7:00 p.m.
