CLAY COUNTY – Sometimes you need the answer to a question at the most inconvenient times – like the middle of the night or on the weekend.

That’s why Clay County Supervisor of Elections Chris Chambless is excited to announce the launch of TextMyGov, a new messaging service to enhance communication between voters and the Elections Office. TextMyGov allows the public to send text messages 24/7 directly to the Elections Office using keywords that will trigger a response to answer the question or concern.

To ask a question or report an issue:

• To find information and report issues, users can text "HI" to (904) 297-2122.
• Users are then prompted to enter keywords such as Vote by Mail, precinct, Early Voting, etc.
• The system answers or provides a link to the Election Office’s website containing relevant information.

TextMyGov also allows voters to sign up for election-related notifications directly from our office. The notifications will be for important dates like Voter Registration deadlines or Election Day, or when Sample Ballots are available or Early Voting begins. All voters are encouraged to opt in for these important reminders.

To sign up to receive text notifications:

• Opt-in by texting "CLAYVOTES" to 91896.
• After sending the initial keyword, you will be asked to confirm your choice.
• You can opt out anytime by texting "STOP" to 91896.

This new communication tool will help enhance community engagement and add a simple, convenient way for voters to contact the elections office. If you have questions or need more information, call the elections office at (904) 269-6350 or visit ClayElections.gov.
