About Municipal Elections

The Supervisor of Elections offers to all municipalities in Madison County the assistance of this office for municipal elections. Although, by Florida Statute, the City Clerk is the elections official, this office is willing to perform all election related tasks with the exception of candidate qualifying for each city. Ballot layout and preparation, absentee balloting, poll worker training, and ballot tabulation are just a few of the services provided.

Persons who would seek to qualify for election in a municipality must contact the city clerk for their respective municipality.

Each municipality has its own charter which governs the requirements for becoming a candidate. Prospective candidates should consult with their respective city clerk well in advance of the qualifying dates to learn about those requirements.
