Voter Registration Deadline for the March 19 Presidential Preference Primary Quickly Approaching

Government

Sarasota County Supervisor of Elections Ron Turner is reminding county residents that the deadline to register to vote in the Presidential Preference Primary (PPP) is Tuesday, February 20—just one week away. Only registered Republican voters may vote in the March 19 PPP.  Turner noted that the February 20 voter registration deadline is also the last day to change political party affiliation for the PPP. “It’s important to remember that since the state Democratic Party already selected its candidate for the party’s nomination for president, only the Republican Party will hold a statewide presidential primary,” Turner said. “To vote in it, you must be a registered Republican by the voter registration deadline on February 20.”  An individual may register to vote, or a registered voter may change his/her party affiliation: Online at RegisterToVoteFlorida.gov; In person at any of three elections offices in Sarasota, Venice or North Port; By mail (application and mailing address available by visiting SarasotaVotes.gov). Existing Sarasota County voters can go to SarasotaVotes.gov and click on the My Voter Status tool to review their voter information. For more information or assistance, call the elections office at 941.861.8619 or visit SarasotaVotes.gov.
