People may not realize that you need to register first before you have the ability to vote in the State of Florida. To sign-up to vote in Florida, you’ll need to follow these points:

First, determine whether you are eligible to vote in Florida. An individual:

Must be a US citizen, Must be a resident of the State of Florida, Must be at least 18 years old(pre-registration to vote is allowed if you are 16 years old), Must NOT be judged mentally incapacitated, Must NOT have been convicted of a felony without your civil rights having been restored, Must supply a valid existing Florida drivers license or ID card, or Must provide the last four digits of your SSN if you do not have a Florida drivers license or ID card. In lieu of these items you must check the box indicated on the registration form as NONE.

Those that meet the requirements, you will next need to complete a Florida voters registration application. Fill out the Voter Registration Application. Complete all fields. Print the application out. Verify all information on your application is provided. Where you register, your SSN, Drivers license number and ID card number are confidential and also are used only for registration purposes. Sign the application. An original signature is needed because you are swearing or affirming to an oath. Mail your application to your trusty county Supervisor of Elections. You can opt to mail or deliver by hand this application to any Supervisor of Elections office in the state, the DMV, a registration agency, an armed forces government agency, or the Division of Elections office.

Lots of people ask whether or not they need to find a notary in florida to notarize the application. As of the date of this article, notarizing isn’t a necessity. If this is a new registration application in Florida, the date the complete application is postmarked or hand delivered to a drivers license office, a voter registration firm, an armed forces recruitment office, the Division of Elections, or the office of any supervisor of elections in the state shall be your registration date. You are required to be registered not less than 29 days till you can vote in an election. If your application is complete and you are qualified as a voter, a voter information card shall be mailed to you. Be sure to very carefully check the application. If the information you provide isn’t correct, you possibly can be convicted of a felony of the third degree and fined up to$ 5, 000 and/or imprisoned for as much as five-years.
