SARASOTA, Fla. (WWSB) – Sarasota County Supervisor of Elections Ron Turner urges voters to “know before you go” and confirm their precinct number and polling location before heading out to vote on November 5.

“As I have been sharing over the past few weeks, some Election Day polling locations were moved after the recent hurricanes,” Turner said. “We mailed approximately 25,000 polling place change notices to affected voters, but it’s always a good idea to check your precinct and polling place before going to vote on Election Day.”

In addition to changes to polling locations due to hurricane damage, Turner reminds voters that in 2023 the elections office increased the number of precincts in Sarasota County to 103 and added nine new polling locations.

“Even without Hurricanes Helene and Milton, many voters will be voting at new polling locations on Nov. 5 because of our re-precinct project,” Turner said. “We sent notices to affected voters at the time, but I get it, people are busy and they may have forgotten. That is why it is essential that they confirm their electoral district and voting location in advance.”

Turner says voters can visit SarasotaVotes.gov and use the Find my electoral district tool to confirm your precinct and polling place.
