The Florida 2022 midterm election will be held on Tuesday, Nov. 8. The primary is Aug. 23. Remember, you have to be registered in your county of residence to vote. Here’s how.

In the midterm election, Floridians will vote for lawmakers that will have a direct impact on key issues that affect the community, including education policy, reproductive rights, the environment, housing, and affordability, to name just a few.

If you want to exercise your right to vote, first you must register. The deadline to register for the primaries is July 25, and for the November election, it’s Oct. 11.

You can register online, in person or by mail.

Support Our Cause

Thank you for taking the time to read our work. Before you go, we hope you'll consider supporting our values-driven journalism, which has always strived to make clear what's really at stake for Floridians and our future.

Since day one, our goal here at Floricua has always been to empower people across the state with fact-based news and information. We believe that when people are armed with knowledge about what's happening in their local, state, and federal governments—including who is working on their behalf and who is actively trying to block efforts aimed at improving the daily lives of Florida families—they will be inspired to become civically engaged.
