Supervisor Of Elections Charlotte County

What Supervisor Of Elections Charlotte County does

Charlotte County Supervisor of Elections is a constitutionally mandated Florida county government office that administers all federal, state, and local elections for Charlotte County, Florida. The office serves 155,146 registered voters across three physical locations — the main office in Punta Gorda (Charlotte County Historic Courthouse), the Murdock Annex in Port Charlotte, and the Englewood West County Annex — supported by 28 polling places, early voting sites, and a vote-by-mail distribution operation covering both domestic and UOCAVA (military/overseas) voters.

The office operates an election technology stack built primarily on ES&S hardware, including the DS300 and DS850 for tabulation and the ExpressVote for accessible ballot marking, complemented by Clear Ballot's VerifyNow Pro for vote verification and visualization. BallotTrax provides vote-by-mail ballot tracking for voters. The office uses a CivicPlus government website platform, an omnichannel social and email outreach program (Facebook, Instagram, X, YouTube, Nextdoor, newsletter), and a CRM-free, process-driven workflow for candidate qualifying and campaign finance compliance. Notably, the office has no proprietary software products, no API surface, and no mobile app.

Funding flows from Charlotte County government appropriations and state election administration grants, with no commercial revenue model. Candidate qualifying fees ($25 for special district candidates), petition signature verification fees ($0.10 per signature), and campaign finance late filing fines ($50 per day or 25% of receipts/expenditures, whichever is greater) are nominal rather than revenue-generating. The current Supervisor of Elections is Leah Valenti, an elected official who oversees office operations. The office has no subsidiaries, no M&A activity, no funding rounds, and no commercial expansion path given its statutory mandate.
