Over 230,000 vote-by-mail ballots for the Nov. 5, 2024 general election will be mailed to Broward County voters on Tuesday, election officials said.
Voters who want to vote by mail must request a ballot no later than October 24, 2024 by visiting www.BrowardVotes.gov.
Vote-by-mail ballots have pre-paid postage on their return envelopes, so there is no need to affix a stamp. Voters returning their ballots by mail should provide as much time as possible for USPS to deliver the ballot, since the ballots must be received – not post-marked – by 7 p.m. on Nov. 5, 2024.
Here are some other deadlines to remember:
– The deadline to register to vote is Monday, October 7, 2024.
– Early voting will take place Oct. 21 through Nov. 3, 2024, daily from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m.
– Voting on election day will take place Tuesday, Nov. 5, 2024, from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m.
– There will be over two dozen locations where voters can drop off ballot drop off their ballots during early voting, election officials said.
Once early voting ends, voters can deliver their ballots to any of the nine Supervisor of Elections offices until 7 p.m. on November 4th and 5th. Visit www.BrowardVotes.gov for the office locations.
“Voting by mail is a smooth and seamless process and is one of the most convenient ways to vote. I encourage all eligible Broward County voters to take advantage of the opportunities our State offers to them in terms of how and where they choose to vote,” Broward Supervisor of Elections Joe Scott said in a written statement.
Voters are encouraged to sign up for status notification regarding their vote-by-mail ballot by visiting www.BrowardVotes.gov. Once voters are signed up, they will receive notifications when their ballot has been mailed as well as when it’s been received and counted. Voters will also be alerted if there are any issues with their ballot.
Coral Springs voters will choose a new commissioner for Seat 5, currently held by Commissioner Joy Carter.
Community leader Jose “Joe” Morera and Joe McHugh, a Coral Springs Police Captain, are competing for the seat. Carter cannot seek reelection due to term limits.
Two incumbents on the commission, Mayor Scott Brook and Commissioner Nancy Metayer Bowen, will win their races by default after running unopposed.
