Voters of Walton County,

The right to vote is one of the most cherished liberties available to Americans, but with it comes a great deal of responsibility.  Many Americans have fought and died to protect these freedoms.  Your right to vote ensures that our government is "by the people, for the people and of the people".  Democracy works best when everyone participates in it.  We are committed to helping you exercise your right to vote so you can make your voice heard at the polls.  This website packed with valuable information and resources is one more way that we can help you make your voice heard.  

The Supervisor of Elections administers all federal, state, and county elections in Walton County in accordance with the Florida election code, the Federal Help America Vote Act (HAVA), the National Voting Rights Act (NVRA) the Uniformed and Overseas Citizens Absentee Voting Act (UOCAVA), the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), and the federal voting rights laws.
  Extensive testing, inspections and audits are a part of every election in Walton County.  The voting system used in Walton County has been certified by the Federal Election Commission and certified by the Chief Election Official in Florida.  Florida has one of the most rigorous certification processes in the United States for voting systems.  By meeting these standards, our voting equipment provides accessibility and empowerment to the widest population of voters. 

It is the goal of the Walton County Elections Office to provide the voters of Walton County with the tools they need to participate in the democratic process.  To do so, we strive to be courteous, efficient, and accommodating.  Please visit this site often for updated information on elections, important deadlines, candidates, and much more. 

I welcome your feedback and am willing to help you in any way I can.

Sincerely,


Bobby Beasley
