October 5 is the Deadline to Register for November 3 Municipal Elections

Pinellas County Supervisor of Elections Deborah Clark is reminding county residents that Monday, October 5 is the voter registration deadline to vote in the November 3 Municipal Elections in St. Petersburg, Largo and St. Pete Beach.

Registration is required for new voters by this deadline in order to participate in the November 3 elections. Voters who are already registered to vote do not need to re-register.

You can register to vote or update your voter information at any Supervisor of Elections office, public library, driver license office or government office handling social services. Some public libraries have evening and weekend hours.

Citizens who are registered anywhere in Florida and now reside in Pinellas County can make name, address or signature updates through Election Day. However, voters are encouraged to update their voter information prior to Election Day to avoid delays. Address changes within the county may be made by phone. Other updates may be made by completing and signing a Voter Registration Application with the changes noted.

To request a ballot by mail or for more information, call (727) 464-6788 or log onto www.votepinellas.com. For an updated voter registration event list, visit www.votepinellas.com and click on Voter Registration Events in the “What’s New” section of the home page.
