For Orange County (and maybe other counties) mail-in ballot must be received on Election Day

https://ocfelections.com/vote-by-mail

For your vote to count, we must receive your voted, signed vote-by-mail ballot no later than 7 p.m. on Election Day – postmarks do not count. (emphasis mine)

If you do not want to mail back your completed ballot, you can drop it off at our office or any early voting location. You can also exchange it for an in-person ballot at your assigned polling place on Election Day.


I did not realize that postmarks do not count. I am going to either 1) mail it in ASAP or 2) take it in physically, to the office at 119 West Kaley Street, Orlando, FL 32806.

Is your county the same ?
