I am away, having a good time. By Geniusofdespair

I am just too busy to write. I am watching basketball, eating good, reading and going to the beach. Who has time to write? I'll be back tomorrow. Meantime read this blog again and volunteer:

THIS IS WHAT EYE ON MIAMI WORKED FOR - if you know potential volunteers, forward this blog to them. PLEASE VOLUNTEER FOR THIS TRAINING by calling Gary Hartfield at 305.499.8372. We can help stop absentee ballot fraud with this program, do your civic duty! Remember: CLOSE ELECTIONS ARE BEING STOLEN by absentee ballot fraud!

Here is a letter from Election Supervisor Penny Townsley describing the program:

In this important election year, the Miami-Dade Elections Department is preparing for the implementation of a countywide voter education campaign. A number of outreach events are scheduled across the County to inform voters about redistricting, registration, and voter protection. Specifically, this Department will be providing supervised voting for absent electors residing in assisted living facilities within Miami-Dade County; ensuring that every resident living in the facilities is able to cast his/her vote in a safe and convenient environment free from fear, intimidation or exploitation.

Since this is going to be a busy election year, we are in the need of volunteers to assist us. Teams consisting of representatives from different political parties will be assigned to participate in various events to educate voters. Training will be provided and every effort will be made to ensure our volunteers are knowledgeable of all election related rules and regulations. We hope that you will join us in making sure the upcoming August 14th Primary Election and November 6th General Election are a success by providing your time which, in turn, gives our voters confidence in the electoral process.

If you want to make an impact on your community and be a part of this important democratic process, please contact Gary Hartfield at 305.499.8372 to become a part of our team.

Penelope Townsley - Supervisor of Elections

A big thank you from us to Penny and her staff for all their work in setting up this program. I have already volunteered.
