Okaloosa County Primary Elections take place on August 23rd, 2022. With less than three weeks before you decide to cast your vote for the Okaloosa County School Board or Elect a Commissioner to the Okaloosa Board of County Commissioners, you can find more information about them here. 

You needed to have registered to vote by July 25th to have the ability to vote in this year’s primary. 

If you haven’t and are legally allowed to vote – you can start the registration process in Okaloosa County here. 

While you won’t be able to vote in the primaries, you will still be able to vote in the general elections. 

There are primary races for the US House of Representatives, State Senate, and Commissioner of Agriculture – but we at Mid Bay News are going to focus on the Okaloosa County elections for commissioner and school board. They are closer to home and typically have less coverage. 

Luckily, for simplicity’s sake, all voters can vote in all countywide races. All voters will be able to bubble in their choice for Okaloosa County Commissioner District 2 – and School Board Member District 1,3, and 5. We’ve asked the candidates to give us a statement about themselves and answer two questions:

1. Why should voters choose me for the office I am running for?
2. What will success look like at the end of my term in office – what specific goals will I am to accomplish?
