Orange County Supervisor of Elections Implements New Statewide Uniform Voter Registration Application   

 

[Orange County, FL - April 25, 2024] - Orange County Supervisor of Elections Glen Gilzean announces the implementation of the new Statewide Uniform Voter Registration Application. 

This update aligns the language in the Statewide Voter Registration Application with recent statutory changes to Florida law. These changes include providing additional information to applicants regarding collection through third-party voter registration applications. Additionally, the updates include language and formatting enhancements to the application and technical updates to supervisors of elections’ addresses and telephone numbers. 

The Orange County Supervisor of Elections office had this new form available online and in the front office along with the new Statewide Written Vote-By-Mail Ballot Request form ahead of schedule on Friday, April 12, 2012. 

Supervisor Gilzean emphasized, “These updates were made by the State after gathering input from both the public and other supervisors of elections during a series of public hearings.” He continued, “They were put in place to conform to the law, make clarifying changes, and address requests for enhancements.” 

The updated application is available on our website.  Orange County residents can register to vote in several convenient ways:
