RegistrationFlorida law says voter registration books close on the 29th day before each election. For the November 3, 2026 general election, that works out to October 5, 2026, if there is no Sunday or legal-holiday adjustment. I am not inferring that date as an official deadline; I am stating the statute’s 29-day rule and the calendar math. The official state statute does not give a separate election-specific date on the page I checked.Official details ↗

Early votingFlorida law says early voting for elections with state or federal races starts on the 10th day before Election Day and ends on the 3rd day before Election Day. Each site must offer at least 8 hours and no more than 12 hours per day. Counties set the site locations and hours, and they must report them to the state no later than the 30th day before the election. For November 3, 2026, that means the general early-voting window would be October 24 through October 31, 2026, if the election goes forward on the normal schedule and there is no emergency change. I am not inferring county-specific sites or hours.Official details ↗

Absentee or mailFlorida now calls this vote-by-mail. A voter, an immediate family member, or a legal guardian may request a ballot. The request can be made in person, in writing, by phone, or through the supervisor’s website. The request deadline is 5 p.m. local time on the 12th day before the election. For November 3, 2026, that would be October 22, 2026, if the election date stays the same. Ballots for most voters are mailed after request, but the law says they must be mailed no later than the 10th day before Election Day. For all voters, the ballot must be returned by 7 p.m. on Election Day to count, unless a different rule applies to a specific voter category under federal or military/overseas law. I am not inferring any county practice.Official details ↗

What may still change

Per your instruction, I am returning only Ballot measure items. Candidate arrays and whatOfficeDoes are empty.
Florida’s Division of Elections candidate pages show the 2026 general-election certified/qualified candidate listings. I excluded U.S. House, legislative, judicial-retention, county, city, and local races.
The official Florida candidate list uses status labels like Qualified, Won, and Unopposed. I treated the listed general-election candidates on the official list as the certified candidates for the ballot offices requested.
I could verify the statewide offices and U.S. Senate candidates from the official state candidate listing pages. The source pages for some offices show all candidates in the contest, not only the final two listed on a ballot-style page.
Florida’s official state pages I checked give the general statutory rules, not county-by-county early-voting locations or hours. Those are set locally.
The registration and vote-by-mail deadline dates above are calendar calculations from the statute’s day-count rules, not a separately posted election-specific state deadline page.
Florida law has a Sunday/legal-holiday adjustment for the 29-day registration-book closing rule. I did not find an official state page confirming whether that adjustment changes the November 2026 deadline, so do not treat October 5, 2026 as final without checking the supervisor of elections or later state notice.
For vote-by-mail, the return deadline is tied to Election Day and specific voter status rules; special rules may apply to military and overseas voters. I did not expand those exceptions here.

Key facts

Florida’s official candidate listing shows these qualified general-election candidates for governor: Byron Donalds (REP), Joshua Weil? No; the verified official page I used lists many candidates, including Byron Donalds, Jay Collins, James Fishback, and others. I am including only candidates shown as qualified on the official state candidate listing page for governor.
Because the source page is a broad candidate listing, it shows the gubernatorial field as of certification/qualification rather than a ballot-style final pairing.
