The Escambia County Supervisor of Elections office will be open to the public on today – Presidents’ Day, and will hold extended hours on Tuesday to allow voters to register or change parties before the book closing deadline for the Presidential Preference Primary.

Office hours will be 8 a.m. until 5 p.m. on Monday and 8 a.m. until 7 p.m. on Tuesday.

Florida law mandates that registration books close 29 days before an election. New registrations and party changes must be completed and received or postmarked no later than February 16, in order for them to be effective for the March 15 election. Address changes can be made after the books close. If you are unsure of your registration status, visit EscambiaVotes.com and click “Am I Registered?”.
