Florida is a Closed Primary Election State That means that only the voters who are registered members of political parties may vote for respective party candidates or nominees for an office in a primary election unless a Universal Primary Contest* occurs. You can change your party affiliation by submitting an updated Voter Registration Application at any time. Party changes must be made 29 days before a Primary Election in order to be valid for that election. All registered voters, regardless of party affiliation, may vote on issues and nonpartisan races during a Primary Election.
*A Universal Primary Contest occurs if all candidates for an office have the same party affiliation and the winner will have no opposition in the General Election.
