Florida Primaries are on August 20

Does your legislator deserve to stay in office? 

As Floridians, we have an important opportunity coming up on Tuesday, August 20: the Florida Primary Elections. These elections are more than just a formality. They shape the direction of our state for the future, and your vote truly matters. If you haven’t done so already, make sure you have a voting plan in place for Tuesday!

Why your vote in the primaries is crucial

While the general elections get most of the attention, primaries are where candidates get chosen, and in some areas, they will go on to win in November without much opposition. 

Make sure you pay attention to State Legislators

This is especially true when it comes to issues that matter deeply to us, like abortion rights. Did you know that Florida's current State Senators and State Representatives are responsible for passing the state's recent abortion ban? It’s important to check where your current legislators stand before you decide to stick with the status quo.

Stay informed with Choice Tracker

Before heading to the polls, check who represents you in the state legislature and what their position is on key issues. Are they working to protect your rights, or are they actively supporting legislation that goes against your values? One helpful resource to use is choicetracker.org/FL, which allows you to see if your current legislators support abortion rights. Knowing this information can help you make informed decisions about whether they deserve your vote.

What’s Next?

As soon as the primaries wrap up, there will be even more to consider for the general election. Right after the primary elections, we’ll be tracking all the candidates running for office in November, allowing you to compare their positions and choose who best represents your values and needs.

Stay informed, get ready, and we’ll see you at the polls!
