YOUR VOTE/ YOUR VOICE: Our Democracy is in danger.
Please be “vote ready” and learn about voting in Brevard County in 2024.
At home and abroad, efforts are being made to cast doubt on U.S. election results as well as our election methods and infrastructure which have eroded faith in our democracy. State legislatures in numerous states – especially Florida – have passed laws that throw up many barriers to citizens’ ability to vote. We have a problem.
You need to know about the latest changes to voting laws and procedures. We all should have a plan to vote in the August primary and November general elections. Vote by mail, vote early in-person, or as a last resort, vote on election day.
Please join us on June 6th at 6:30 p.m to get the latest news and advice from our experts on exercising your most precious right – your right to vote.
