OmniBallot is an accessible "web balloting portal" which allows eligible voters to access, mark, and print their ballots at home, on their home devices and printers. OmniBallot is not an online voting system, and has been reviewed and certified by the Florida Secretary of State, as well as reviewed by numerous federal, state, and independent cybersecurity labs.
For more information on participating in this program, call us at 407-836-2070 or email us here.
