Free, online absentee ballot tracking system now available

(July 12, 2010) Beginning this month, Sarasota County voters who choose to cast absentee ballots in any election will be able to track their ballots online. The new online service also allows voters to check their registration status, party affiliation and local polling place information, and to request an absentee ballot.

 

Supervisor of Elections Kathy Dent said “This service will answer some of the most common questions we get from voters just prior to an election and reduce the volume of phone calls from concerned voters during an election cycle.

 

“More importantly, it will increase voter confidence in the election process by allowing a voter to  track his or her absentee ballot from the time we receive the request to the time the voted ballot is safely received in the elections office,”  she said.

 

Voters can go to the http://registration.election.myflorida.com and enter their name and date of birth to track their absentee ballots and access other election information.

 

Requests for absentee ballots for the August 24 Primary Election to be mailed must be received by the supervisor of elections no later than 5 p.m. on Wednesday, August 18.

 

Ms. Dent also reminds absentee voters that, to be counted, the voted ballot must be received in one of the three supervisor of elections’ offices in Sarasota, Venice, or North Port no later than 7 p.m. on election day. Marked absentee ballots may not be turned in at a polling place on election day.

 

 

From the Office of the Supervisor of Elections
