Requesting a Ballot

There is “no excuse” vote by mail voting. Each County has their own forms, BUT we have found that many states end up requiring you to use the state wide form and we are not recommending that you just use that in print and mail it:
STATE-WIDE Mail ballot form: https://files.floridados.gov/media/707937/ds-de-160-statewide-vote-by-mail-request-eng-fillable-eff-20240417.pdf
- MAIL TO your county election supervisor: https://dos.elections.myflorida.com/supervisors/
