With courage you will dare to take risks, have the strength to be compassionate and the wisdom to be humble.
Courage is the foundation of integrity.
Twelve years ago the people of Leon County elected me as Supervisor of Elections. Today, Leon County has over 100 different sites in our community where citizens can pickup voter registration forms. We conduct elections in our public and private schools, training our children in the importance of voting. We now have a computerized voting system, tabulating the votes quickly and reliably. This month, for example, the Florida Legislature has adopted the in-office absentee voting procedures I developed in 1996 in Leon County as a new state law.
