Saturday is the final day to vote early in Pasco County’s 2026 general election. Three Wesley Chapel locations will be open from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m., giving local voters one last opportunity to cast a ballot before Election Day on Tuesday, November 3.

This is the end of early voting, not the end of the election. Voters who do not participate Saturday may still vote Tuesday, but the rules change: early voters may use any of Pasco County’s 12 early-voting locations, while Election Day voters must go to the polling place assigned to their precinct.

FINAL DAY OF EARLY VOTINGSATURDAY, OCTOBER 317 A.M. TO 7 P.M.

Election Day is Tuesday, November 3. Saturday closes only the early-voting period.

Three locations in Wesley Chapel

Pasco County voters may use any county early-voting site, regardless of their home precinct. The three Wesley Chapel options are:

  • New River Branch Library, 34043 Wesley Chapel Boulevard.
  • Wiregrass Ranch Sports Campus, 3021 Sports Coast Way.
  • Wesley Chapel District Park, 7727 Boyette Road.

The Supervisor of Elections provides live wait times for all 12 sites. Checking that page before leaving can help voters choose the most convenient location rather than assuming the nearest site will have the shortest line.

Any registered Pasco County voter may use any of the county’s early-voting sites.

What to bring and what to check

Voters should bring identification containing both a photograph and a signature. A person who cannot present the required identification may cast a provisional ballot. Anyone who has moved should update the address on the voter record before going to the polls; the elections office provides an online update option and assistance at 800-851-8754.

The county’s unofficial turnout page changes throughout the day. Those figures describe participation, not results, and should not be interpreted as evidence that any candidate or measure is ahead.

Vote-by-mail ballots must be received by the Supervisor of Elections by 7 p.m. on Election Day. Secure ballot intake stations are available at early-voting sites during the early-voting period and at Supervisor of Elections offices through Election Day. A mail ballot cannot be dropped at a regular polling place on Election Day.

WHAT CHANGES AFTER SATURDAYEARLY VOTING — OCT. 31Use any of Pasco County’s 12 sitesELECTION DAY — NOV. 3Use the polling place assigned to your precinctPolls open 7 a.m. to 7 p.m.

The precinct rule applies on Election Day, not during early voting.

What residents should know

There is no early voting Sunday or Monday. Residents who plan to wait until Tuesday should use the official precinct finder before leaving home, particularly if they recently moved or have not voted at their current address before.

The practical choice Saturday is simple: check registration information, select an early-voting location, review the live wait time and arrive with the required identification. Wesley Chapel Today does not endorse a candidate, party or ballot position; this report is strictly a public-service guide to participating in the election.
