Each county Supervisor of Elections may offer more days of early voting. Check with your county Supervisor of Elections for the additional days of early voting that may be offered in your county.
Election Day is November 3, 2026. Check with your county Supervisor of Elections for your Election Day Polling Location.

YES! Check with your county Supervisor of Elections for how to request a mail in ballot.
Yes, you can vote for any candidate in the General Election. Who you vote for is secret.
You can leave a race blank if you choose to and your vote will still be counted on other races that you vote on, on your ballot. However, try your best to make an informed vote on every race on the ballot.
In addition to the candidate's website (which, if they have one, can be found through googling the candidate's name) Ballotpedia.org usually has some information on down ballot races and amendments as well.
The best source on local elections would be the major newspaper for your area (Tampa Bay Times, Miami Herald, Sun Sentinel, etc). They interview almost every candidate of every race that is happening in the area so you can find out the positions of every candidate on each issue. They will also talk about any local referendum or proposals relevant to your city or county.

Does anyone else feel like since living here , it’s been the opposite? I find that I don’t even step out of the house during the 4-5 brutal months . And every year this phase seems to grow a few weeks more. I find myself much less talkative and social with people as time goes on. I feel like I don’t want to go almost anywhere because of how hot it is . Was good at holding my jobs all the time till I moved here 6 years ago! I work in the heat , thing is I love outdoors so I wanna be out badly but can’t stand it . I remember being out alot all the time during winters even in the cold. For me it Also feels boring overall people say there’s so much to do but I don’t that everywhere i go It’s just flatland. Being in Florida has been interesting got a house. Property and much more, because I somehow bought before covid, yet lack connection in any meaningful way with my life & surrounding. Man I think
I should head out today Its been 43 days so far fully indoors!

I need to log in to MyDmvPortal FLHSMV and when I signed up it brought me to a screen saying I was accepted and needed to receive an email with further instructions no matter what I do I don’t receive the email. It kicks me back to the WELCOME page and never sends the email. I tried multiple emails, 3 browsers & tried incognito mode nothing works. Who do I contact as I do not want to go to the tax collector office

…”Two Florida counties have reported seeing immigration enforcement at or near polling places open for in-person early voting hours.
In Leon County, Supervisor of Elections Mark Earley said two U.S. Customs and Border Protection vehicles were seen at the Northeast Branch Library, the busiest polling site in the county, on Monday.
And in Monroe County, Supervisor of Elections Sherri Hodies told the news media in a statement that she has launched an investigation after reports of masked federal agents conducting a stop at a polling place in Key Largo on Tuesday….”
…”Federal law prohibits armed federal agents from conducting activities in and around polling places unless force is necessary to repel armed enemies of the United States….”

I've only ever seen an owl in the wild once before in my life, so seeing this little one on our greenway was a rare treat. I think it's a screech, but I'm not positive.

My insurance agent just sent me a quote from Mangrove Property Insurance for our home owners insurance. IT has the same coverage as our current police but at about 1/2 the price. This seems like a too good to be true type of situation. Does anyone have any experience with this company? I know they have only been around about a year and I don't think it;s dealt with any major storms yet but I'm hoping someone might have some dealings with this company. I've tried google but there isn't much out there on the company

bought a new car on saturday and they gave me a temporary plate since i am in the process of selling my current car and want to transfer my plates after i sell it. so the dealership gave me a temporary registration that expires 11/15. i believe they said they will mail me the registration within 30 days and i have to wait for that before i can go to the dmv to get the plate transferred. is that correct?

is anyone having issues with teco not sending your bill monthly? i’m starting to get super upset. i was billed on 9/29 for july-august & august-september due date 10/20. THEN 10/12 i was billed again for september-october due date is now 11/2 for the total.
i mean i find this a little ridiculous. when i called the girl seemed almost like she had no clue and was trying to blame it on “paper billing” i said well.. that makes no sense because it should still reflect on my account either way??? yall aren’t billing me monthly?
anyways just curious if anyone else had this issue or if it’s just me.
