Concerned citizens of Sarasota County and voters from all over Florida will gather at a REVOTE RALLY at 2:00 p.m. in Bayfront Park, Sarasota. Guest speakers will explain Sarasota’s nearly 18% “undervote” on the touchscreen voting machines, the experts’ scorecard on electronic voting systems, and the need to call upon local and state officials to honor democracy through a paper ballot revote in Sarasota County of the 13th District Congressional race. Join in and take a Stand For Democracy for Sarasota and all Americans.
