You may also register to vote at any of the following "official voter registration" locations.

What do I do if I have moved?

If you are already registered to vote in Broward County, fill out the back portion of your voter information card or complete a Florida Voter Registration Application Form. You can also download a form from our web site (see Register To Vote), fill it out, sign it, and mail it to our office. You can also send a request in writing that includes your signature.
If you are moving from another state or county (other than Broward), you MUST complete a Florida Voter Registration Application Form and mail it to the Supervisor of Elections office. You can download the form from our web site (see Register To Vote) or pick up a form at any "official voter registration" location.

I've registered to vote...now what? Is there a deadline?

Normally, you will receive your card within three weeks after the application is received by the Supervisor of Elections office.
New applications must be turned in at the registration site at least 29 days before an election in order to meet the book closing deadline.
