What Orange County Supervisor of Elections does

The Orange County Supervisor of Elections is a constitutional office of Orange County, Florida, statutorily responsible for administering all federal, state, county, and municipal elections within the county. It serves approximately 804,576 registered voters across the county's full demographic spectrum. Core functions include voter registration maintenance, vote-by-mail processing via integration with the BallotTrax tracking platform, early voting administration across 26 locations, Election Day voting operations, candidate qualifying, and post-election canvassing and auditing.

The office's technology footprint consists of certified tabulation equipment, a voter registration database, the BallotTrax mail-ballot tracking system, and the recently launched voteorangefl.gov public-facing website. Multilingual service capacity extends to 8 languages. The office employs 261 staff and operates under countywide reprecincting tied to an expansion of the Orange County Board of County Commissioners from 6 to 8 districts, with additional congressional redistricting planned for 2026.

The office is publicly funded through county and state appropriations rather than commercial revenue; it does not charge users for services. Its "customer base" is the entire registered voter population of Orange County, and its competitive position is defined by its statutory monopoly on election administration within the jurisdiction. Executive leadership transitioned with the election of Karen Castor Dentel, under whom the office has pursued modernization including the website launch, expanded early voting footprint, and enhanced multilingual access.
