In Florida’s closed partisan primary elections, you are only eligible to vote in primary contests for the party in which you are registered.

A Universal Primary contest occurs when all candidates for an office have the same party affiliation. These contests appear on every voter’s ballot. Voters in ECUA District 1 (Republican) and ECUA District 3 (Democratic) will have these contests on their ballot regardless of party affiliation.
