SAVE THE DATE AND NOTE THE NEW TIME!

November 7, 2019 from 6 PM to 8 PM 

downstairs in the Unitarian Universalist Fellowship Hall  

2487 A1A South, Saint Augustine FL 32080.

Ok, so none of us like driving in the dark and being out 

late during the week so we're changing it up! Besides, the

holidays are coming and things get crazy. 

Come and relax with us for a couple hours to talk about 

where we go next. We'll have light refreshments and free flowing 

conversation among friends old and new.  

Our meetings are open to the public 

and new members are always welcome.

SO WHAT’S HAPPENING WITH AMENDMENT 4 

AND WHAT YOU CAN DO

This article addresses the question about actions County SOE‘s must take

 to implement provisions in SB7066 that limit the restoration of 

Voting rights to returning citizens.

The effective date of this bill was over one year ago and the FL Secretary of State is still struggling with how to gather court data on felony convictions and payments of fines and restitution.

A State court has already expressed its reservations and may overturn this law.

According to Senator Bradley, the Legislature may be forced to address this issue again in 2020. It's currently blocked by a judge but...

HB6007 has already been filed to remove language requiring full payment of certain fines & fees.  A companion bill in the Senate is needed.

SO, CALL SENATOR HUTSON AND TELL HIM

HONOR THE WILL OF THE VOTERS AND

FILE A COMPANION BILL.
SENATOR HUTSON: 386-446-7610

This is your opportunity to visit our state capitol, have dinner

your state legislators to vote on issues important to us as UUs.  

The next day we meet with our legislators or their staff in their offices.   

Lodging (for UU members only)is included free of charge 

at the local Days Inn. Several members have already attended 

and have found it a very interesting, informative experience.  

The antidote to despair is action – 

and actions such as this can be very healing.

Blue Wave Coalition of St. Johns County

Fall NPA Outreach Canvass

St. Johns County has nearly as many non-party affiliated (NPA) voters 

as Democrats, but many of them are left-leaning. Join us as 

we reach out to left-leaning NPAs

 and offer them the opportunity to change parties so they can vote in the

 March Presidential Preference Primary!  

As a canvasser, you will be paired with another person and visit

 just 20 homes of targeted voters. 

All training and materials will be provided, along with

 snacks and refreshments. 

We will use a strategy that will help us first identify whether the voter 

is a Trump supporter. If they are not, we'll remind them that Florida 

is a closed primary state and if they would like to help Democrats 

pick someone to oppose him, they need to register as a DEM.

  

We will have voter registration forms on hand to facilitate party changes.

We are likely to have some pretty interesting conversations! 

Let's have fun experimenting with this strategy -- Blue Tsunami's all around 

for returning canvassers! 

Date: 10/26/2019 (Sat.)

Time: 9:00am - 12:00pm EDT

Location: 143 Appaloosa Avenue, St Augustine FL 32095
