Here is your helpful guide to voting. Please vote all the way down the ballot, your voice is loudest the more local you get. We strongly lean Democrat in party races.
Note that Alachua County Commission races are newly single district, so you may have no County Commissioners, or one of the two we list. Later in the ballot you have the chance to vote on returning us to at large voting for County Commission.
You will also find two names under Sheriff, the Democrat, Chad Scott, and No Party Pamela Marshall-Koons. Pam has a mental health and social justice background, and has added a lot to our community, and to the candidate forums, and should be recognized for that.
