Florida Voters Urged To Check Driver's License Issue
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. Florida voters are being urged to verify their driver's license information ahead of upcoming elections as mismatched or outdated records could prevent some residents from casting ballots. Newsweek has contacted the Florida Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) and the office of the supervisor of elections for comment via email. Why It Matters Several U.S. House districts in Florida are expected to be competitive in the 2026 midterm elections. Districts such as the 10th, 15th and 16th have drawn attention because of shifting demographics and political dynamics. Both major parties are preparing for intense campaigns in these areas, and any elections in the state could affect the balance of power in Congress.

Getty Images What To Know According to WPTV, any licenses issued from July 31, 2024, onward will include updated combination numbers, and this change could have significant implications for future voters. The change means that those attempting to request a vote-by-mail ballot online will encounter error messages if their driver's license information is out of sync with their voter registration. In-person voting is not affected by the new license changes. But Duval County Supervisor of Elections Jerry Holland told Action News Jax that petitions could also be affected. "If you don't update your registration info and use your new license number on a petition, it can't be counted. So that's where you do want that update prior to putting your new number on a petition form," he said. The Florida DMV said the update was designed to make driver's licenses more secure. The new licenses feature an updated two-digit number within the license number that corresponds to the holder's birth year. The Supervisor of Elections Office, which has been sharing guidance about the change through newsletters and press releases, plans to send postcards as Election Day approaches to remind residents to verify and update their voter registration details. When updating a driver's license, voters should check the box indicating "yes" to update their voter information, even if no other changes are being made. This simple step can prevent problems on Election Day. Brad Ashwell of All Voting Is Local told Action News Jax that a new license number wouldn't "automatically update with your local supervisor of elections." He added that the update came into play especially for voters "who want to vote by mail, which is, you know, hugely popular all over the state with both parties." Voters can also contact the Supervisor of Elections Office directly or visit to confirm their registration. Holland said he had asked the state whether it would eventually automatically advise election supervisors when a voter's driver's license number changed and that he expected an answer by Monday. Vote-by-mail requests must be submitted to the supervisor of elections at least 12 days before an election. What Happens Next In Palm Beach County, there's a special election for the Republican Party in House District 90 on September 30, followed by the special general election on December 9. The midterm elections follow in November 2026, with the primaries taking place in August.

RedCloud Delivers Stellar Year-Over-Year Customer Growth In H1 With Positive Retailer Purchasing Behavior
LONDON, Aug. 11, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- RedCloud Holdings plc ('RCT') ('RedCloud' or the 'Company') today announces positive year-over-year customer growth numbers across its markets with a growing appetite for bulk trade between distributors, while also making positive progress on key retailer purchasing metrics. During the first half of 2025, the Company more than doubled its active retailer base to 68,089 customers, from 32,405 for the same period last year, representing growth of 110%. For the same period, the Company's active distributor customers increased by 136% year over year to 1,017, from 431 during the same period in the previous year. The increase in customer numbers brings greater diversity of inventory data sets gathered on the RedAI Trading Platform, further deepening the quality of data, market insights and trade intelligence for the Company's customers to grow and improve their business performance. In addition to customer growth as a sign of progress, the Company closely monitors purchasing trends within its retailer base through the Red101 app, with the intention of maximizing choice and flexibility for its retail customers. Comparing the first half of 2025 to the same period last year, the Company reports a 214% increase in orders containing multiple brands - demonstrating the Company's ability to improve both consistent supply and assortment for retailers, while bringing opportunities for brands and distributors to reach new customers through the Red101 app. 'Today we are proud to announce solid growth in customer numbers in the first half of 2025, alongside encouraging buying behavior from retailers across adjacent categories and from alternative distributors. Metrics around customer behavior are strong indicators of how the RedAI Trading Platform and Red101 app deliver transparency and choice to supply chains – such as the ability for retailers to choose more products from the best local distributors, in quantities they need and at competitive prices,' commented Justin Floyd, Co-Founder & CEO of RedCloud. 'We are proud of the growth we continue to deliver and are thankful to our customers for joining us on the open commerce journey. When combined with initiatives such as the recently launched TradeX bulk trading program, we remain extremely confident about progress towards our mission to deliver the new operating system for global FMCG trade.' About RedCloud Holdings plc RedCloud has developed and operates the RedCloud trading platform (the 'Platform'), that facilitates the trading of everyday consumer supplies of fast-moving consumer goods ('FMCG') products across business supply chains. RedCloud believes its Platform solves a decades old problem of how to unlock and enable access to key purchase and sales data between brands, distributors and retailers in high growth consumer markets. Through RedCloud's Platform, retailers are enabled to use data driven insights backed by artificial intelligence ('AI') to help make faster and easier business-to-business ('B2B') purchases and inventory decisions from brands and distributors by breaking down complex purchasing behaviors of large product inventory catalogues.
