Mail ballot election: This election will be conducted as a mail ballot election. This means that ballots will be mailed to each registered voter in the proposed annexation areas. There will be no polling places open for this election. Ballots will be mailed on November 16, 2004 (except for overseas voters, whose ballots will be mailed as soon as they become available). Because this election is being conducted by mail ballot, you do not need to request an absentee ballot. However, if you reside in one of the proposed annnexation areas and you have moved and not notified the elections office, or if you will not be at your residence address (or will not have access to the mailing address that we have on file for you) after November 16, you must contact us to update your address information and/or to let us know where to mail your ballot.
All ballots must be voted and returned to any Elections Office by mail or in person no later than 5 PM on December 6 (7 PM at the Viera Office) to be eligible to be counted.
Mail ballots do not require witnesses like absentee ballots. They do, however, require that you write your full Brevard County residence address, including city, state and zip code, and sign your name in the appropriate spaces on the return envelope. All signatures will be verified against our registration records. Ballots with blank or improperly completed certificates will not be counted.
Moving into the proposed annexation areas: If you move into one of the proposed annexation areas from another area of the county after the ballot mailing period (after November 26), you may vote in office as noted below. Due to requirements of state law, no ballots other than replacement ballots may be mailed after November 26.
Voting in office: Voters with special needs or who are unsure where they will be during the mailing period may vote at the Melbourne or Viera Supervisor of Elections offices during regular office hours from November 16 until 5 PM on December 6 (7 PM at the Viera Office).
Military and overseas voters: If you are in the military or are temporarily residing outside of the country, and you have not notified our office of your military or overseas address, please contact us immediately. If you have notified us previously of your current address, you do not need to do so again. Overseas voters' ballots will be mailed on as soon as they become available in order to give you sufficient time to vote and return the ballot.
Lost or damaged ballots: In order to receive a replacement ballot, you must sign an oath stating that you did not receive your mail ballot, or that it was lost or damaged.
