Register to Vote - Florida Division of Elections - Department of State


That is exactly how registering to vote works in Florida, except for the fingerprinting. Having a driver's license has nothing to do with voting, except that you can use your driver's license for identification, or you can use a Florida ID card or the last four digits of your social security number.
