佛罗里达州务卿发布选举日提醒：投票站开放至晚7点，须到指定投票点并出示照片证件
美国佛罗里达州州务卿 Cord Byrd 10月26日在州首府塔拉哈西（Tallahassee, Leon County, Florida）发布选举准备提醒，迎接11月3日（周二）举行的2026年大选。Byrd 表示，提前投票已在全州展开，州政府的职责是确保每场选举高效、公正地进行。
提前投票方面，佛罗里达州全部67个县在10月24日至31日提供提前投票，部分县还增加了天数，各县提前投票地点与时间可在州选举司网站查询。邮寄投票方面，申请邮寄选票的截止时间已过（选举日前第12天即10月22日下午5点）；除海外军人选票外，所有选票必须在选举日晚7点（当地时间）前送达才会计数。
选举日当天，投票站开放时间为上午7点至晚7点（当地时间），晚7点时仍在排队的选民仍可投票。选举日当天，选民必须到本人指定的投票点投票，可通过选民信息卡、联系本县选举监督官或州选举司的选区查询页面确认地点。
佛罗里达州法律要求选民在提前投票或选举日投票时出示现行有效的照片证件，州选举司网站列有本次大选可接受的证件清单；法律同时要求提供纸质选票。此外，民众如发现可信的选举舞弊或违法线索，可拨打佛罗里达州选民舞弊热线877-868-3737，或通过州务卿厅下设的选举犯罪与安全办公室（OECS）在线举报。该办公室2022年设立，去年向执法部门移交了近900宗涉嫌选举舞弊线索；上月，州长 Ron DeSantis、州检察长 James Uthmeier 与 Byrd 还宣布逮捕了20名被控非法投票的被告。
计票方面，11月3日的初步非官方结果将在 Florida Election Watch 网站公布；由于佛罗里达横跨东部与中部两个时区，初步结果要到美东时间晚8点才上线，各县计票委员会须在投票站关闭后半小时内开始报告、此后每45分钟报告一次。选举日的逐小时投票率也会在该网站更新。
Florida Secretary of State Issues Election Day Reminders: Polls Open Until 7 p.m., Vote at Your Assigned Precinct With Photo ID
Florida Secretary of State Cord Byrd issued an election readiness update on October 26 in Tallahassee, Leon County, Florida, ahead of the general election on Tuesday, November 3, 2026. Byrd said early voting is under way statewide and that it is the state's duty to ensure every election is administered efficiently and with high integrity.
All Florida counties offer early voting from October 24 to 31, with some counties adding days; locations and times for all 67 counties are listed on the Division of Elections website. The deadline to request a vote-by-mail ballot has passed (5 p.m. on October 22, the 12th day before the election), and, excluding overseas military ballots, all ballots must be received by 7 p.m. local time on Election Day to be counted.
On Election Day, polls are open from 7:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. local time, and any voter in line at 7:00 p.m. may still cast a ballot. Voters must vote at their assigned polling place on Election Day, which they can find on their voter information card, through their county supervisor of elections, or on the Division's precinct lookup page.
Florida law requires voters to present a current and valid photo ID during early voting and on Election Day, and requires that paper ballots be provided. Suspected fraud or election-law violations can be reported to Florida's Voter Fraud Hotline at 877-868-3737 or online through the Department of State's Office of Election Crimes and Security (OECS), established in 2022, which made nearly 900 referrals to law enforcement last year. Last month, Governor Ron DeSantis, Attorney General James Uthmeier and Secretary Byrd announced the arrest of 20 defendants charged with illegal voting.
Preliminary unofficial results will be posted on the Florida Election Watch website on November 3; because Florida spans the Eastern and Central time zones, results will not be posted until 8:00 p.m. EST, and county canvassing boards must begin reporting within half an hour after polls close and every 45 minutes thereafter. Election Day turnout will be updated hourly on the same site.
