Early Voting Begins in Florida 2022

Okay, for the midterms we're closing in on Election Day (November 8th 2022) and that means Early Voting areas are going to open up in most counties across Florida.

Not every county starts on October 24th, so check your county's elections website to confirm start times and locations. For Polk County, it starts today and goes to November 4th, so check for your closest Early Voting location which should cover most major cities.

Every vote matters. Every vote matters especially if you're voting Democratic. Yes, my position on which party to support - FOR THE LOVE OF GOD DO NOT VOTE REPUBLICAN - has been pretty much established since 2004. 

Please, truly, for the love of God do NOT vote for a party that openly promotes racism and homophobia the way the Republicans have, do NOT vote for a Republican Party that wants to turn women into second-class breeding cattle. Do NOT vote for Republicans who have been running the state of Florida since 1998 and have FAILED repeatedly to clean up our ecosystems and our waterways, and  FAILED to fix our overwhelmed homeowners insurance system (even when they had a special session this year to address that matter, they did little and passed anti-gay laws instead). 

Republicans have been in charge of Florida for 20-plus years: They have mismanaged this state to where condos are collapsing and schools are falling apart and our beaches stained by Red Tide, yet all they do is push culture war bullshit on us. We honestly cannot afford another cycle of their misrule.

We have an opportunity to elect good leaders for Florida, like Charlie Crist for the Governor's seat, like Val Demings for the Senate, a chance to elect more Democratic Congresspersons in spite of DeSantis' overt gerrymandering to screw up our state's representation. We can turn away from the ever-flailing Far Right extremism of the Republicans to a more moderate, more responsive Democratic governance. We need to, Florida.

We need an honestly strong Blue Wave this 2022, and that means getting the vote out for every Democratic and progressive-leaning Independent across this state. Let's go, voters. Turnout matters. Your vote matters. Let's do this.
