October 31 is Deadline to Request Mail Ballot

At 5 p.m. on Wednesday, Oct. 31 it is the deadline to request that a ballot be mailed for the November 6 General Election.

Pinellas County Supervisor of Elections Deborah Clark announces that 5 p.m. Wednesday, Oct. 31 is the deadline to request that a ballot be mailed for the November 6 General Election.

After that deadline, voters may still pick up ballots at any Supervisor of Elections office and vote in the office or return their voted ballots by mail or in person. All ballots must be received in any Supervisor of Elections Office or any of the 14 ballot dropoff locations by 7 p.m. Election Day. Mail ballots cannot be accepted at a polling place.

The ballot for this election is four pages long (two cards per voter). To avoid long lines at the polling place, any registered voter can request a mail ballot and vote at home at their convenience.
