HILLSBOROUGH COUNTY, Fla. – Hillsborough County Supervisor of Elections Craig Latimer is reminding voters they can vote this weekend, and is encouraging voters to cast their ballot, whether in person or by mail, as soon as possible.

The 2022 Primary Election includes nonpartisan issues and races for school board and judges, as well as universal primary contests for State Senator District 20 and Board of County Commissioners District 4. That means all voters can vote in this election, regardless of party affiliation.

Hillsborough County’s in-person Early Voting continues daily through August 21, with 26 sites open 10 a.m. – 6 p.m. Voters can vote at any Early Voting site during this period, and should visit the Early Voting page of VoteHillsborough.gov to find a convenient location and check the wait time.

Voters who have a Vote By Mail ballot can drop their Vote By Mail ballot off at a Secure Ballot Intake Station located at Early Voting sites during Early Voting hours. Voters should allow at least a week to return their ballot by mail, and are encouraged to drop it off to ensure it is received on time.
