Don't Forget to Vote!

[Sara Hand]

This week on Tuesday, August 24th Sarasota County is holding primary elections. With the kids going back to school on Monday, with the upcoming holiday and the rain we are supposed to experience all this week....Tuesday is likely to be a busy day. Despite the busyness...make a commitment to get to the polls. The decisions we make this week will determine our choices down the road. Those choices will directly affect the quality of life we live here in our beautiful Sarasota County. Education is crucial to our economic development. A favorable environment for business growth and the relocation of current businesses combined with fiscal responsibility are crucial.

Your vote counts! And to help you be informed, the Sarasota Herald Tribune has put together a voters guide to help you study the candidates. There is an option to customize this based on your precinct. Don’t let the feeling of not being prepared, a busy schedule or some crummy weather keep you from casting your vote for life in beautiful Sarasota.
