Important voting dates and deadlines

The deadline to register for an upcoming election is 29 days before that election. You can also update your registration record at any time.

However, since Florida is a closed primary election state, a party change for a primary election must be made by the registration deadline for that election.

If the deadline has passed, you can still submit an online application at any time and it will be processed for future elections.

  • Deadline to register or change party affiliation for 2024 Primary Election: July 22, 2024

  • Deadline to register for 2024 General Election: October 7, 2024

EMPOWER YOUTH VOTE COALITION

Welcome to our platform! We are a small non-partisan local based women’s group that recently launched an initiative to engage youth (ages 18-40) across the Emerald Coast through community engagement, interactive training and key community partnerships, in order to provide voter education, mobilization and engagement. We are seeking to elevate the impact of youth groups in Florida's Emerald Coast.

In a world where every voice matters, we believe that informed and engaged citizens are the cornerstone of a thriving democracy.

Our mission is clear: to bridge the gap in voter engagement among the American American community by providing accessible, relevant, and empowering resources. Through our dedicated efforts, we aim to cultivate a culture of active participation and civic responsibility, ensuring that every individual recognizes the power they hold in shaping the future of our nation.

At the heart of our initiative lies education. We understand that many may feel overwhelmed or uncertain about the electoral process, which is why we are committed to breaking down barriers and simplifying complex concepts. From demystifying voter registration to highlighting the impact of local elections, we strive to equip our audience with the knowledge and tools they need to make informed decisions at the ballot box.

But our work doesn't stop there. We are dedicated to fostering ongoing dialogue and community engagement. Through engaging content, interactive workshops, and collaborative partnerships, we aim to create a vibrant network of informed citizens who are actively involved in shaping the issues that matter most to them.

Join us in our mission to ignite change and amplify the voices of the next generation of American voters.

Together, we can build a future where every voice is heard, and every vote counts.
