Supervisor Fawkes reminds the public that Absentee Ballots are available as an alternate for anyone that is unable to Early Vote or participate on General Election Day.

In closing, Supervisor Fawkes states, “We are not helpless. The fire is still burning. Please go out and vote. Too many people have died and sacrificed so much for us to have our voice, we have to use it. Get in formation. Use our voices to do something great for our children.”– Beyonce.
