You can return them by mail, at secure ballot intake stations at early voting locations during voting hours, or in person at the Elections Office. Mail ballots cannot be returned to Election Day precincts, the Supervisor of Elections says.
What to Bring
Florida requires a photo ID with a signature when you vote in person, such as a Florida driver license or ID card. If your photo ID has no signature, bring a second ID that does.
What's on Your Ballot
St. Johns County voters will see statewide, congressional and legislative contests, along with three statewide constitutional amendments that each need 60% to pass: the budget stabilization fund, a farm property tax exemption and a homestead exemption and assessment cap. Two County Commission seats, Districts 2 and 4, were settled in the Aug. 18 primary, according to News4JAX's reporting on those results, so they will not be decided in November. Your exact ballot depends on where you live, so look up your sample ballot before you go.
Why It Matters Locally
St. Johns County has spent the fall in a high-profile fight over development under a new state law, with the County Commission reversing course on several projects and the chair planning a court challenge. Whatever your view, the officials and laws that shape those decisions are decided at the ballot box.
