Did you know the top reason Vote-by-Mail (VBM) ballots are rejected in Florida is because they arrive after 7 p.m. on Election Day? If you requested and received your VBM ballot, here's how to make sure it gets counted: 
  1. Sit down and fill out your VBM ballot right now.
  2. Make sure to follow all instructions, especially signing the envelope. (Your ballot is invalid without signature.)
  3. Mail your ballot today and avoid Post Office delays.
    (You can also deposit it in a secure ballot drop box - see drop box locations on your county's Supervisor of Elections website.)
