Palm Beach County Voters Can Find Their Precinct and Track a Mail Ballot in the Vote Palm Beach App

Palm Beach County voters can now access election information from their smartphones through the Vote Palm Beach app, launched by the Palm Beach County Supervisor of Elections Office and available free in the Google Play Store and the Apple App Store, according to the Palm Beach Post in a report read in full by this desk. The app lets users check their voter information, find voting locations, view election dates and deadlines, track their vote-by-mail ballot and access information directly from the elections office.

Supervisor of Elections Wendy Sartory Link presented the app as a confidence tool for the general election. As published by the Post, she said: "Whether you're at home, at work, or on the go, we want to make it as easy as possible for every Palm Beach County voter to access accurate, reliable election information," adding that the app "puts another trusted resource right in the palm of your hand." The launch followed a website overhaul and the introduction of the Palm Beach County Voter Dashboard.

The timing matters this weekend. Early voting in Palm Beach County runs through Sunday, Nov. 1, from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. at 28 sites where any registered county voter can cast a ballot, and mail ballots can be dropped off at any early voting location during early voting hours. Election Day is Tuesday, Nov. 3, with polls open 7 a.m. to 7 p.m., and vote-by-mail ballots are due at the Supervisor of Elections headquarters by 7 p.m. that day. Voter information is also at VotePalmBeach.gov, and the elections office can be reached at the number published in the Post's report.
