Loxahatchee, Florida Public Records

These agencies routinely collaborate with the Sheriff's Office on major investigations and regional public safety initiatives, creating a coordinated approach that extends across the county's diverse communities.

Florida residents have multiple options for registering to vote: online at registertovoteflorida.gov, by mail using applications available at pbcelections.org or through the Florida Division of Elections, or in person at the Supervisor's office or any Department of Motor Vehicles location. The deadline falls 29 days before any election, and applicants must provide either a Florida driver's license or ID number, or the last four digits of their Social Security number. As an unincorporated community, Loxahatchee has no mayoral or city council races. Instead, residents vote for Palm Beach County Commission seats - most local voters fall within District 2 - along with Florida House and Senate representatives, school board members, constitutional officers such as Sheriff, Tax Collector, Property Appraiser, Clerk & Comptroller, and Supervisor of Elections, plus special district boards including the Loxahatchee Groves Water Control District. Voters can find their assigned polling location by entering their address at pbcelections.org/Voters/Precinct-Finder or calling the elections office directly. Early voting runs for approximately two weeks before each election at multiple county sites, including locations in West Palm Beach, Royal Palm Beach, and Wellington. A complete list appears at pbcelections.org ahead of each election cycle. Florida's public records law opens election data to broad public scrutiny. Voter registration lists, with certain personal details redacted, can be purchased or inspected. Campaign finance reports for candidates and political committees are searchable at dos.elections.myflorida.com/campaign-finance. Candidate filings and qualifying documents are available from the Supervisor's office, and precinct-level as well as countywide results are published at pbcelections.org following each election. The November 2024 general election saw Palm Beach County exceed 75% voter turnout among registered voters, with more than 700,000 ballots cast in the presidential contest, a sign of strong civic participation. On November 3, 2026, voters throughout Loxahatchee and Palm Beach County will decide several consequential races. No U.S. Senate seat is up that year, but the ballot will include the Governor's race, an open contest since Ron DeSantis is term-limited, plus all Florida Cabinet positions: Attorney General, Chief Financial Officer, and Commissioner of Agriculture. Every seat in the Florida House of Representatives will be contested, with District 85 covering portions of western Palm Beach County including this community. Depending on the cycle, even-numbered Florida Senate districts may also appear on the ballot. County voters will elect Palm Beach County Commission members in Districts 2, 4, and 6, along with constitutional officers, Sheriff, Tax Collector, Clerk & Comptroller, Property Appraiser, and Supervisor of Elections - and School Board representatives. Florida voters can request a vote-by-mail ballot online at pbcelections.org, by phone, by mail, or in person. Once requested, ballots arrive at the voter's address and must be returned by 7:00 p.m. On Election Day, either through the mail or at designated drop-boxes and early voting sites. No excuse is required for vote-by-mail, and voters can opt for a standing request to automatically receive ballots for all elections in a given cycle. Sample ballots, voter guides, and details on local referenda or ballot measures are posted at pbcelections.org well before each election.
