“People often say that, in a democracy, decisions are made by a majority of the people. Of course that is not true. Decisions are made by a majority of those who make themselves heard and who vote—a very different thing.”
—Walter H. Judd


“Democracy is the only system that persists in asking the powers that be whether they are the powers that ought to be.”
—Sydney J. Harris

Issues on the Ballot

Go see a sample ballot for our precinct. The items we have to vote on for this election cycle are the school bond issue and three open city council seats.

Early Voting at City Offices

If you don't want to fight the crowds (although that hasn't traditionally been too much of a problem) or need a more convenient time to vote, you can drop by the city offices and cast your vote early. You may vote any time between 8:00 am and 12:00 pm or on Friday, November 4th, from 12:00 pm to 5:00 pm.
