Before you cast your ballot, check out the LWV online Voter Guide, VOTE411
The LWV of Alachua County invited your local candidates to participate in VOTE411. You can learn about their qualifications and where they stand on the issues by going to VOTE411.org.
When you get to the webpage, you will see the above illustration. Click the Find What’s On Your Ballot box in the upper-right.
You will be asked to enter your address* and your party. By doing this you will only see the candidates appearing on your ballot.
While most candidates were responsive, some were not. Don’t become discouraged if candidates did not respond. Move on to the next race. It’s easy to know who responded because you will see their pictures; those who didn’t respond will only have a placeholder photo as shown below.
You have a right to know where candidates stand on the most important issues in your community. Even after multiple contacts from League volunteers, some candidates have not yet answered our questions – which is why we need your help! We’re asking you to urge your candidates to fill out the voter guide as soon as possible. The more voters who contact candidates, the more likely they are to fill it out. Learn how you can help.
When you have viewed all the races and selected the candidates, click the Finish button at the bottom of the last page. You will be given an option to print your selections. Use it as your Cheat Sheet when you go to the polls or complete your vote by mail ballot.
*Your address will never be saved, sold or used for marketing purposes, but if you do not want to share your address, scroll to the box that says "View All Races or Candidates," select one and then select "Florida" from the list of states.
