Supervisor's Message
Welcome to Another Election Year!
Since the start of the new year, our team has hit the ground running as we get ready for the upcoming elections. This month, I traveled to Tallahassee and had the honor of meeting with our local representatives to discuss the future of election administration in Collier County and the entire state of Florida. Florida is the gold standard for election administration, and I am proud that Collier County has a reputation of conducting excellent elections.
We are less than 50 days from the first election of the year – the Presidential Preference Primary. Since the Democratic Party has only one candidate, the Republican Party will be the only party with Presidential Candidates on the ballot. Voters who live within the city limits of the City of Naples will see the Mayoral and City Council races on their ballot. For voters who live within the city limits of Marco Island, they will see two amendments to the city’s charter on their ballot.
Election Day for the Presidential Preference Primary is Tuesday, March 19. Early voting for the election will take place March 9-16, and polls will be open 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. daily. As a reminder, all Vote-by-Mail ballot requests from previous years have expired, so voters who wish to vote by mail for the upcoming election must submit their request by 5 p.m. on March 7.
During the election season we anticipate a lot of information circulating about voting and elections in Florida and Collier County. I want to remind you that WE are the trusted source for voting and election information in Collier County.
