Where to Vote in St. Lucie County, Florida

On Election Day a St. Lucie County voter votes only at the polling place for the precinct of his or her legal residence, which the Supervisor of Elections prints on the voter information card (Florida Statutes 101.045; 2026 Voter Information Guide).

The St. Lucie County Supervisor of Elections guide says the card shows the polling place, precinct number and address along with the Congressional, State House and State Senate districts, and that polls are open from 7:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. on Election Day (Voter Information Guide). The office's precinct page warns that polling locations and precinct assignments are subject to change and asks voters to run the lookup tool before entering the polling place (Find my Precinct page).

The Supervisor of Elections precinct list for Fort Pierce, Port St. Lucie and the rest of the county gives a total of 62 precincts served at 47 precinct locations (Precinct List and Locations). Its summary block also lists 38 Port St. Lucie precincts, 21 Fort Pierce precincts and 31 unincorporated county precincts, plus one each labeled Jensen Beach and Palm City and two for the Village of St. Lucie; the list tags each precinct with the city, St. Lucie Village or community development district it includes. Several polling places on the list sit in public buildings such as the Havert L. Fenn Center at 2000 Virginia Ave in Fort Pierce, the Port St. Lucie Community Center at 2195 SE Airoso Blvd and the Paula A. Lewis Library at 2950 SW Rosser Blvd.

A voter who moved within St. Lucie County can update the address at the new precinct's polling place by signing an affirmation, but a voter arriving from outside the county generally must vote a provisional ballot there (Florida Statutes 101.045).

Florida Statutes 101.045 lets an elector who moved within the same county, or into a county that uses an electronic database as the precinct register at the polling place, vote in the new precinct after completing a Change of Legal Residence affirmation or a voter registration application; a name changed by marriage or another legal process is handled the same way (F.S. 101.045). The same section keeps the out-of-county rule, except for active uniformed services voters and their families and moves into a county using an electronic precinct register, and it requires the St. Lucie County Supervisor of Elections to update the statewide system as soon as practicable after receiving the affirmation.

The St. Lucie County Supervisor of Elections guide ties this back to the ballot itself: the address on file decides which ballot a voter receives, and voting happens in the precinct assigned to the residence (Voter Information Guide).

The St. Lucie County Supervisor of Elections 2026 guide lists the early voting locations in the table below, and the office's mail ballot notice refers to them as eight Early Voting locations (2026 Voter Information Guide; mail ballot notice).

Addresses come from the St. Lucie County Voter Information Guide; the last column checks each site against the list on the Early Voting and Election Dates page, which does not include the Lakewood Park library. A separate Supervisor of Elections notice announces the Lakewood Park Library at 7605 Santa Barbara Drive in Fort Pierce as an early voting site meant to reduce long wait times, and explains that the lack of public facilities in the North County area leaves the office relying on the community to lend buildings (Lakewood Park early voting notice).

Florida Statutes 101.657 lets the St. Lucie County Supervisor of Elections hold early voting at its main or permanent branch offices and at a fixed list of public building types, with 8 to 12 hours a day at each site (Florida Statutes 101.657).

For the St. Lucie County Supervisor of Elections, the building types the statute names are city halls, permanent public library facilities, fairgrounds, civic centers, courthouses, county commission buildings, stadiums, convention centers, government-owned senior centers and government-owned community centers, and a branch office qualifies only after it has been a permanent facility used as such for at least 1 year (F.S. 101.657). Sites must be spread so all voters in the county have an equal opportunity to cast a ballot insofar as practicable and must offer enough nonpermitted parking. A supervisor may add one site per election in an area of the county with none of the eligible building types, and each county must run at least as many early voting sites for a general election as it ran for the 2012 general election.

On timing, the statute sets the mandatory window from the 10th day to the 3rd day before an election with state or federal races, and lets the Supervisor of Elections add any of the 15th through 11th days and the 2nd day before (F.S. 101.657). The St. Lucie County guide applies that by starting early voting ten days before a primary and fifteen days before a general election (Voter Information Guide). Sites are designated no later than the 30th day before the election, and anyone in line when a site closes may vote.

Yes; under Florida Statutes 101.71 the St. Lucie County Supervisor of Elections may move a polling place that is unavailable, inadequate or not accessible, and must publish and mail notice of the change (Florida Statutes 101.71).

The statute sets the notice steps: a planned move is made not less than 30 days before the election, notice runs not more than 30 days or fewer than 7 days before it on the county's website, on the Supervisor of Elections website or in a newspaper, and a mailed notice reaches each registered voter or household at least 14 days before the election (F.S. 101.71). In an emergency the supervisor names a new polling place and posts a notice at the old one. Each polling place carries a sign with the precinct number in letters at least 3 inches high, and public, tax-supported buildings must be made available as polling places or early voting sites when the supervisor asks.

The St. Lucie County guide adds that replacement voter information cards are mailed when there is a change in polling place or precinct (Voter Information Guide). The current Fort Pierce and Port St. Lucie precinct list marks such changes in place, for example a new precinct formerly part of Precinct 1 and a polling place listed with its former name or former location (Precinct List and Locations).

The voter casts a provisional ballot in the precinct of residence and may give the St. Lucie County Supervisor of Elections written evidence of eligibility until 5:00 p.m. on the second day after the election (provisional ballot page; Florida Statutes 101.048).

The St. Lucie County Supervisor of Elections provisional ballot page says a voter must have a residence address within the precinct where the provisional ballot is cast, that every provisional voter receives a written notice of rights, and that a voter who voted provisionally only for lack of photo and signature ID does not need to bring further evidence; the canvassing board compares the signature on the provisional certificate with the registration record (provisional ballot page). Florida Statutes 101.048 says the ballot is sealed in a secrecy envelope and then a provisional ballot envelope, and that the canvassing board decides whether the person was entitled to vote at that precinct (F.S. 101.048).

Help at the polls is spelled out on the Supervisor of Elections Early Voting page: under Florida Statutes 101.051 a voter who needs help because of blindness, disability or inability to read or write may ask two election officials or a person of the voter's choice, other than an employer, an agent of the employer or a union officer or agent, and Spanish language assistance and ADA-compliant equipment are offered at early voting locations (Early Voting and Election Dates page). Accepted ID and office addresses appear in this site's guide to the county Supervisor of Elections.
