WESLEY CHAPEL, FL — Pasco County voters still have time to review their ballot, check their registration and make a voting plan before early voting begins for the November 3, 2026, General Election.
The voter registration deadline for the General Election was October 5, according to the Florida Division of Elections and Pasco County election information. Election Day is Tuesday, November 3.
For many Wesley Chapel residents, the most useful step this week is to look up a personalized sample ballot. Pasco County Supervisor of Elections Brian E. Corley announced that sample ballots are available online and that voters need to know their precinct to view the correct ballot. The county also says voters can use the Precinct Finder if they are unsure of their precinct number.
PascoVotes says sample ballots will be mailed to voters at the address on file. Voters whose registration address is not current may not receive the mailed sample ballot, so the elections office is encouraging residents to check registration status and update addresses before voting.
Early voting in Pasco County is scheduled to run from Monday, October 19, through Saturday, October 31. The posted schedule lists voting hours from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. each day during that period.
Pasco voters may also request vote-by-mail information through the Supervisor of Elections website or by calling 800-851-8754. PascoVotes says voters can track their vote-by-mail ballot online.
The sample ballot matters this year because voters may see statewide constitutional amendments, local races and other items depending on where they live. Ballot content can vary by precinct, so a voter in one part of Wesley Chapel may not see the exact same local contests as someone in another part of Pasco County.
PascoVotes encourages voters to review, mark and bring their sample ballot to an early voting site or polling place to help speed up the voting process. Polls on Election Day are scheduled to be open from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m.
For Wesley Chapel residents, the Sunday checklist is straightforward: confirm registration, review the sample ballot, decide whether to vote early, by mail or on Election Day, and make sure the address on file is current.
