Democrats who register to vote by mail are much more likely to vote than those who don’t.
If you would like to request a vote by mail ballot, please call the Supervisor of Elections office at 239-LEE‐VOTE (239-533‐8683) from 8:30-5:00 Monday through Friday or go online to www.lee.vote to update your voter registration. Your request to vote by mail must be received by the Elections office no later than 5 PM on the sixth calendar day preceding the election.
Enrollment in Vote-by-Mail is now only good for only one general elections. If you are not sure you are still enrolled, call the Supervisor of Elections office at 239-LEE-VOTE (239-533‐8683). They can check and re-enroll you over the phone.
If it has been over five years since you last registered to vote, please re-register to assure your current signature is on file.
For information on early voting, visit the Election Dates page of the Florida Elections website.
Happy Hours are the first Thursday of each month. Check Calendar of Events or your email for the location.
At our February 21, 2019, monthly meeting the membership of the club approved the by-law changes recommended by the Board of Directors. The club will now be named the Progressive Club of the Islands (PCI). We are looking forward to the greater opportunities for activism that our new by-laws allow.
