Early voting is underway for the November 3, 2026 General Election. If you prefer to cast your ballot in person before Election Day, you can now choose a day and location that work for your schedule.
Brevard County early voting runs from Monday, October 19, through Saturday, October 31. Registered Brevard voters may use any designated early voting location in the county.
For those following the Cocoa City Council District 4 race, this is also an opportunity to learn more about Ron Chabot, his background, and the priorities behind his campaign.
Early Voting Dates and Hours
Early voting locations are open:
- Monday–Friday: 8 a.m.–6 p.m.
- Saturday–Sunday: 8 a.m.–4 p.m.
You do not have to use your Election Day precinct during early voting. Choose a location from the
official
Brevard County early voting list
and check its address before leaving.
Your residential address determines which contests appear on your ballot. Voting at a different early voting location does not change the races you are eligible to vote in.
If you plan to vote on
Election Day, Tuesday, November 3, you must use your assigned precinct polling location.
What Should You Bring?
Bring current, valid identification showing your photo and signature. A Florida driver license is one accepted option. If your photo identification does not include a signature, you may use another accepted form of identification to provide it.
Check the
Supervisor of Elections’ identification requirements
before your visit. If you arrive without acceptable identification, ask an election worker about provisional voting.
Before heading out, review your sample ballot so you have time to consider the candidates and questions you will see.
