Early Voting Starts February 25 for March 11 ElectionsPinellas County Supervisor of Elections Deborah Clark announces that early voting for the March 11 elections for the Pinellas Suncoast Fire & Rescue District and 12 municipalities begins at 8 a.m. on Monday, February 25. "Early voting and voting by mail make casting a ballot more convenient for voters," said Clark. "It is difficult for some voters to get to the polls on election day." Early voting will be held from February 25 through March 8. Hours are 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., Monday through Saturday. Early voting is available at all Supervisor of Elections offices:
Election Service Center
Pinellas County Courthouse
County Building All registered voters are eligible to vote by mail. To request a ballot by phone, call (727) 464-6788. The deadline to request that a ballot be mailed to you is 5 p.m. on Wednesday, March 5. Voters may pick up ballots through Election Day. Ballots must be returned to any Supervisor of Elections office by 7 p.m. on Election Day and cannot be accepted at polling places. To avoid delays and extra paperwork, voters should bring picture and signature identification to the polls. Anyone without valid ID can vote a provisional ballot. A canvassing board will later determine the validity of any provisional ballots.
