Voting on Amelia Island

Where to vote early

October 22 to 31, 9 AM to 6 PM, weekends included. Any registered Nassau County voter can use any of the five sites. One of them is on the island.

On election day

Election day is different: you vote only at your assigned precinct, 7 AM to 7 PM. Look yours up by house number with the county’s precinct locator, and check your sample ballot before you go. Sample ballots post about 30 days before each election.

Vote by mail

• ✦A mail ballot counts when the elections office has it by 7 PM on election day. A postmark is not enough.
• ✦Drop it at a secure ballot intake station: inside the elections office in Yulee (8 AM to 5 PM), inside the Fernandina Beach Historic Courthouse satellite office (8:30 AM to 5 PM), or inside any early voting site while early voting runs.
• ✦They are all indoors, and staffed. The drop box that used to sit outside the elections office is no longer in use, so there is nowhere to leave a ballot after hours. Stations are monitored by election workers and emptied at the close of each day.
• ✦Florida law does not allow intake stations at polling places on election day. That day, deliver it to the elections office instead.
• ✦Track your ballot at NassauFLVotes.com, the county’s ballot-status service.
