Early voting starts Monday; City Hall not a precinct

Early voting starts in Florida on Monday, October 24. From Monday through Sunday, November 6, you can vote in the presidential election, which has many other issues on the ballot. There is a change this year in that Miami City Hall is not an early voting location. The closest place for Coconut Grove to vote early is the historic Vizcaya Garage. This is next to the old Museum of Science. It's an easy lot to get in and out of and it's not far from City Hall.

City Hall is not being used this go round because large crowds are expected and they feel they need a larger space.

The Vizcaya Garage is at 3250 S. Miami Avenue. Across the street from the Vizcaya house.

Voting times every day that the early voting is available is from 7 am to 7 pm.

Other areas in the city that will hold early voting is the Arsht Center downtown, the Stephen P. Clark Government Center, Shenandoah Branch library, Carrie P. Meek Senior & Culture Center, Model City Branch Library and Lemon City Branch Library.

Another location close to the Grove is the Coral Gables Branch library.

Any of these locations can be used during early voting and then on actual election day, November 8, you would have to vote at your home-based precinct.
