THANK YOU, DISTRICT 1 NEIGHBORS! BUT THE WORK ISN'T DONE YET! VOTE FOR CAROL ON NOVEMBER 5!

Local Focus: District 1

Carol's concern is for local issues that affect District 1: managing growth, conserving our environment, affordable housing, veterans' care, being a good steward of our resources and not grandstanding on national issues!

FISCAL RESPONSIBILITY

Protecting Finances

Carol will vote against impractical or wasteful spending projects. She will also make sure that growth pays for itself through full collection of impact fees from developers at proper rates, not outdated rates.

Civic Engagement

Carol will get up close and personal with her constituents. She will respond meaningfully to emails and calls, and hold regular town halls. She will educate the public and improve communication from the BoCC and county staff.

Events & Announcements

Welcome!

Thanks for your interest in Carol Felts' campaign. Carol has a long history of advocacy for public education and engagement with elected officials, holding them accountable. She is going to bring that energy to the dais, being the responsive elected official that this county needs. Stay tuned to keep up with her events.

Are You Registered to Vote?

Florida is a closed primary state.  What does that mean?

It means that you can only vote in the primary of the party in which you are registered.  So if you're registered as a Republican, you can vote in the Republican primaries - but ONLY in Republican primaries!  People who are not registered Republicans cannot vote in the Republican primary.

Carol is running as a Republican for County Commissioner.  To vote for Carol in August, you will need to be a registered Republican living in District 1 of Manatee County.
