May 2022 President’s Message – Time to Act

Russell Tuff
President
Republican Men’s Club of Collier County

It’s mid-May, the roads feel great to travel as many seasonal residents are up north for the summer. Why that seems ideal to leave it all behind, there are some important things to remember as we head into the primary election season. We have to take care that we are registered to vote, if you want to vote by mail, you should submit your information to the Supervisor of elections.

It is important as there has been a lot of adjustments made to voter rolls. Be sure to confirm your absentee voter status, and put in the address you want to receive it, as voter ballots cannot be forwarded.

There is a good selection of candidates to choose from this election cycle. If you want to make sure Florida remains as a great place to live work and play, than you need to vote to ensure our elected officials agree with your values. That can only happen by making your voice heard at the voting booth.

The next two months, the Republican Men’s Club will introduce you to all of the Republican Candidate for our County elections. Come and be informed.

Absentee ballots go out in a couple of months – be ready. For Early Voting, there are new voting locations at Heritage Bay Govt Services Center and South Regional Library.
