ALACHUA COUNTY – Local election officials are warning residents to be aware of upcoming election-related mailings from a nonprofit organization that is not affiliated with the Alachua County Supervisor of Elections.
According to the Supervisor of Elections office, the Voter Participation Center plans to send mailers to Alachua County voters and residents, with delivery expected around March 30. The organization, which operates nationally, is not connected to the county’s elections office.
Officials said the group has previously sent thousands of similar mailings in Alachua County. While the materials are generally intended for individuals who are not registered to vote, past mailings have led to confusion among some recipients, particularly when notices were sent based on outdated or incorrect information.
The Supervisor of Elections office emphasized that it does not provide address data for these mailings and is not involved in their distribution.
Residents who receive the mailers and have questions or concerns are encouraged to contact the Voter Participation Center directly. The organization can be reached at 866-209-9755 or online at voterparticipation.org.
Local officials also reminded residents that the Alachua County Supervisor of Elections remains the official source for voter registration and election information. Voters can check or update their registration status through the county’s website or by contacting the office directly at 352-374-5252.
Officials said verifying voter information through official channels can help prevent confusion as the mailings are distributed later this month.
