Early voting will be offered daily through Saturday, November 5. Early voters cast paper ballots through our digital scanners, and may choose any one of the seven sites.

Another option for voters is to cast a vote-by-mail ballot, which can be requested through the online form at EscambiaVotes.com, or by email (votebymail@escambiavotes.com), phone (850) 595-3900, mail, or fax (850) 595-3914. Requests must include the voter’s date of birth and address, and must be received no later than Wednesday, November 2. Voted ballots must be received in the Elections Office no later than 7 p.m. on Election Day and may not be returned to a polling location. The Postal Service recommends voters mail ballots at least one week before the due date. Vote-by-mail participants may track the status of their ballot at EscambiaVotes.com.

The third option for voters is to cast a ballot at their precinct on Election Day, Tuesday, November 8. Polls will be open from 7 a.m. until 7 p.m.

    Voting for a candidate simply because of their ( wide-open mouth )
    fake smile will not do our Country justice…… Being pretty with an
    affable smile is for HOLLYWOOD . This election is very serious
    business. Our future is at stake here…..let’s put on some grown-up
    pants and think for a change !

    I know a few people who said “I think I’m going to sit this one out, there is knowone worth voting for.” Then I rebuke them and say too many folks have died to give you that right. If you don’t have a BEST candidate then vote for your second best candidate. THIS MIGHT BE THE MOST IMPORTANT ELECTION IN AMERICAN HISTORY.
