Orange County, Florida, held general elections for board of county commissioners, clerk, comptroller, property appraiser, public defender, sheriff, state attorney, supervisor of elections, tax collector, soil and water conservation districts, 9th Circuit Court judges, and county court judges on November 3, 2020. A primary was scheduled for August 18, 2020. The filing deadline for this election was June 12, 2020.
Circuit court judicial candidates competed in nonpartisan primaries that narrowed the field to two candidates for the general election. Candidates who received a simple majority (50% plus one vote) of the vote in the primary were considered winners and were not on the ballot in the general election unless a write-in candidate qualified for the same office.[1] Unopposed candidates for the circuit and county courts did not appear on any ballot and were considered elected following the general election.[2]
