When Will Election Results Be Announced in Pinellas County?

Polls close in Pinellas County at 7 p.m.

Once you have been to your polling location, or otherwise cast your ballot, you may be wondering when voting results will be announced in Pinellas County.

It's hard to predict exactly when the Pinellas County Supervisor of Elections will have all of the county votes in and counted, but here's what we do know:

  • Polls in Pinellas County close at 7 p.m.
  • The Supervisor of Elections office has a timeline that says it will then "release results from early voting and mail ballots received through day prior."
  • Next, it will "begin receiving precinct results by modem from polling places."

The statewide results for Florida might take a bit longer because portions of the panhandle are in the Central Time Zone and polls will close there at 8 p.m. EST.
