Your vote is your voice: make sure it’s heard.”

More Than One Office Up for Election
Board Vice President Lisa Deeley reminded voters that regardless of the method chosen to exercise their voting rights or whom they decide to support, they should be informed that there are many other offices on the ballot this year. The outcome of these contests will have as much or more impact on voters, their families, and the daily lives of their neighbors. I encourage all citizens to vote, and to vote on all the offices on the ballot.”
