League of Women Voters Reminder:
3 Ways to Cast Your Ballot in August Primary
This will be a critical election year for Floridians, with decisions which will impact our competitiveness in education, healthcare, coastal drilling, protection of our water resources, growth management,
and the list goes on. Voters will face an historic number of state
offices up for election, with no incumbents running. In addition, voters
have to navigate as many as 10 complex ballot amendments, with
their choices having a major impact on everything from class size to
property taxes.
For the August 24th Florida primary, the League of Women Voters of Florida
encourages voters to vote the easy way. There are three ways to cast your ballot:
- Vote by Mail
- Vote early at designated sites in your county
- Vote on Election Day
For more details on finding your precinct, how to order a mail-in ballot, locating your early voting site, or finding polling hours for Election Day, voters may log on to www.VoteAnywhere.org, or for Spanish to www.VamosaVotar.org.
"In
this pivotal election year for Florida's future, we call on every voter
to exercise their citizenship and VOTE in the August primary," states
Deirdre Macnab, President of the League of Women Voters of Florida.
"Vote on your schedule. It's democracy made easy!"
We can help your audience/group understand the importance and issues at stake in this election!
The League can be a source of non-partisan information on elections and
has expert speakers available to discuss all the Amendments that will
appear on this year's ballot. Contact Deirdre Macnab, (407) 415-4559, to book a media interview, or call Jessica Lowe Minor at (850) 224-2545 for a speaker for your local group anywhere in Florida.
