Florida's primary election is on Tuesday, August 26, 2014, but if you want to avoid long lines at the polls, you can take advantage of early voting.

Early voting dates vary by county:

  • Flagler, Lake, Osceola:  Monday, Aug. 11 – Saturday, Aug. 23
  • Orange:  Friday, Aug. 15 – Sunday, Aug. 24
  • Brevard, Marion, Seminole, Sumter, Volusia: Saturday, Aug. 16 – Saturday, Aug. 23

During early voting, you may cast your ballot at any early voting site in your home county. That's an advantage over voting on Election Day, when you can only vote at the polling place assigned to your precinct.

You will need to bring a photo ID with your signature to vote. You are also allowed to bring a filled-out sample ballot to use as a guide when filling out your official ballot.
