🚨 EARLY VOTING UPDATE: POWER OUTAGE 🚨
Good morning, Nassau County voters!
We are currently experiencing a power outage on Amelia Island. Nassau County Emergency Management will notify us once power has been restored.
In the meantime, we have activated our emergency procedures to ensure that our Atlantic Recreation Center early voting location remains operational and voters can continue casting their ballots. We will continue to serve voters.
Voters who prefer to visit another location are welcome to vote at any of our other early voting sites throughout Nassau County.
As always, if you have any questions or concerns, please contact our office at 904-491-7500.
Thank you for your patience and understanding as we work to ensure a safe and accessible voting experience for all Nassau County voters!

⚠️ POTENTIAL ISLAND-WIDE POWER OUTAGE
A major power line has been compromised near Shuckers, impacting both Florida Power & Light (FPL) and Florida Public Utilities (FPU).
Due to the nature of the damage, repairs will require a temporary interruption of electrical service to the entire island. The repair process is expected to result in 4 to 5 hours without power.
PREPARE NOW: Charge electronic devices, have flashlights ready, and plan ahead for essential needs.
Stay informed and stay safe, Nassau.
