Early voting for the Nov. 3, 2026 general election kicks off in Miami-Dade County on Monday, October 19, and runs through Sunday, November 1, giving residents two full weeks to cast ballots ahead of Election Day.

All early voting sites will be open daily from 7:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. during the period, with no days off — including weekends. A Secure Ballot Intake Station will be staffed at every early voting location throughout operating hours for voters who prefer to drop off a completed mail ballot in person.

Early Voting Schedule

  • Week One: Monday, Oct. 19 – Sunday, Oct. 25
  • Week Two: Monday, Oct. 26 – Sunday, Nov. 1
  • Hours: 7:00 a.m. – 7:00 p.m. every day, both weeks
