Your voting plan for District 48 — Winter Haven, Dundee, Lake Wales and East Polk

Use the State of Florida's official voter lookup to confirm your registration, address and party. If you've moved within Polk County, update your address so you're assigned the right polling place.

Florida voters can vote by mail, vote early in person at a Polk County early-voting site, or vote at their assigned polling place on Election Day. Exact early-voting locations, hours and mail-ballot deadlines are set and published by the Polk County Supervisor of Elections — check their site for the current schedule rather than relying on word of mouth.

If you already have a mail ballot, follow its instructions, sign the envelope, and return it so it arrives by the official deadline. You can track your mail ballot through the Supervisor of Elections.

On Election Day you must vote at your assigned precinct; polls in Florida are open 7:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m., and anyone in line at 7:00 p.m. may vote. Bring a current, valid photo ID with your signature, such as a Florida driver's license or ID card.
