Local Elections
LAST CHANCE TO VOTE!
Election Day:  Saturday, May 4

Local elections affect your pocketbook more than any other, as these are the taxing entities!  Vote wisely. Leadership teams in our various satellite locations have provided recommendations for our website for many city councils, school boards, and county races.  Some of you have bond elections as well, and as a rule of thumb, we generally recommend voting no.  Do your research wisely, and never believe anyone who tells you a bond is not a tax! You can read my thoughts on the bonds here.

You will need to write down your choices, as you cannot take electronic devices into the voting booth.  Unfortunately, if your area is not listed, we won't be able to help out.  Sometimes that's because you literally don't have anyone worth supporting in your area (very common in local elections).  Sometimes that's because none of the candidates have a challenger.  Most times it's because nobody did the research and shared it with us!  In that case, I urge you to go to your county elections website and find out who is on your ballot.  Then go to their website or Facebook page and see who is supporting them.  Sometimes that's all you'll need for it to become pretty clear.  If not, the best thing to do is just reach out to the candidate(s)!  They would LOVE to talk to you.
