Registration Deadline

July 25th, 2008 by flanews

Monday is the last day to register in order to be eligible to vote in the August Primary. More than 300,000 Floridians have registered to vote since January. About 200,000 registered as Democrats. Secretary of State Spokeswoman Jennifer Davis said the deadline isn’t just for people who haven’t registered; it’s also for people who want to change their party affiliation.

“In Florida we have a closed primary, so if you’re registered as a Democrat you’re going to get the democratic ballot. If you’re registered as a Republican, you’re going to get the Republican ballot. If you’re no party, you’re going to get the non-partisan races only, so make sure your party is registered the way you want it for the ballot,” said Davis.

Voter registration drives will be held across the state this weekend. The Primary is on Tuesday August 26th.
