Dear Ms. Hines:
In planning for the 2010 election cycle, the Miami-Dade County Elections Department is
requesting that your municipality modify the dates for candidate qualifying. With the transition to
a paper-based voting system, the state deadlines for several election processes have been
moved up. For instance, per Florida Statutes 1 01.62(4)(a), absentee ballots must be mailed to
overseas voters 45 days before a general election. For the November 2, 2010 Sunny Isles
Beach General Election, absentee ballots to overseas voters would have to be mailed to later
than September 18, 2010.
The qualifying dates for the 2010 General Election are currently scheduled to end on
September 3, 2010. Unfortunately, this date will not give the Department sufficient time to
prepare, print, and mail absentee ballots to overseas voters by the statutory deadlines. Given
these constraints, it is imperative that the Elections Department receives all resolutions,
candidate loyalty oaths, and any other documentation necessary to prepare the 2010 General
Election ballot by August 20, 2010. It is respectfully requested that your board consider
moving your qualifying dates, so that qualifying ends by our August 20,2010 deadline.
Your prompt reply to this request is greatly appreciated. Should you have any questions or
concerns, please contact me at 305-499-8509 or Rosy Pastrana, Deputy Supervisor of
Elections, Operations at 305-499-8548.
Sincerely,
~~d-
