Escambia Election Day Tips
August 14, 2012
The primary election is today in Escambia County. Polls will be open from 7 a.m. until 7 p.m.
Supervisor of Elections David H. Stafford is offering these Election Day tips:
- Confirm the location of your polling place: check your sample ballot, voter information card, EscambiaVotes.com, or call (850) 595-3900.
- Several precincts and polling places have changed due to redistricting and precinct consolidation, so be sure to know where to vote on Election Day.
- If you are unsure of your registration status, check EscambiaVotes.com, or call 595-3900.
- Photo and signature ID is required for all voters – if you do not present an approved form of ID, you may vote a provisional ballot.
- All registered voters, regardless of party affiliation, are eligible to vote in certain contests on the ballot, while other contests are restricted to voters in a specific political party or district — check your sample ballot to view the contests in which you can vote.
- Registration books closed on July 16 – new registrations and party changes for this election may not be made at the polls.
- You may not return your voted absentee ballot to your precinct on Election Day – it must be returned to the Elections Office by 7 p.m.
- If you requested an absentee ballot but chose not to return it and wish to vote at your polling place instead, please bring your unvoted ballot with you so it can be cancelled.
- Busiest times at the polls tend to be 7:00 a.m. until 9:00 a.m., and 4:30 p.m. until the polls close at 7:00 p.m.
For further information, please contact the elections office by phone at (850) 595-3900, e-mail at soe@escambiavotes.com or visit EscambiaVotes.com.

Another tip is ignore the people trying to strong arm you for a vote.
I totally agree with you Joe…..I tell folks all the time that want to sit and complain, that if they didn’t Vote, then they don’t have any right to complain!
i do both joe, neither seems to do much good. we have a broken corrupt government top to bottom. need house cleaning.
If you don’t vote don’t complain.
