Why Voting Matters

In Franklin County, the people who show up to vote decide who represents everyone. The next election for Franklin County voters is Florida's presidential preference primary on March 21, 2028; local elections can come sooner, so check your local election office. Local work in restaurants and hospitality and retail means debates over tourism and small businesses directly affect Franklin County families.

Franklin County voters cast about 6,760 ballots for president in 2024, about the same as the 6,850 cast in 2020. Compared with the county's roughly 11,100 adult residents, that works out to about 61%, above the statewide rate of about 57%.

That means roughly 4,350 adult residents did not cast a presidential ballot. Some are not eligible, but many are, and that is a lot of untapped power. If just one in 20 of them voted, Franklin County would add about 217 voices, more than enough to decide a close local race.

Franklin County is rural, with about 24 people per square mile across 545 square miles, so every vote carries extra weight in local races.

ZIP codes in or partly in Franklin County include 32320, 32321, 32322, 32328, 32346 and 32358. Check that your registration is current, look up your sample ballot, and make a plan to vote. Then ask a friend or family member in Franklin County to do the same.
