Greetings from the President

Greetings!
Get out and vote!
With the Governor's race already decided in favor of Bobby Jindal, voter turnout is expected to be very low throughout the state for elections on November 17th. However, there are several key issues and elections yet to be determined. Of high importance to economic development in West Feliciana Parish is proposition #2 for the renewal of the one mil tax. Additionally, there is the renewal of the library one mil tax and the emergency call center/rapid response two mil tax. When you combine the fact that several leadership positions in our parish remain up for grabs, there are many reasons to show up on election day, or earlier. Absentee ballots can currently be requested at the Registrar of Voters. Starting next Saturday and going through the following Saturday, you can vote in advance at the Registrar of Voters office. Their office will be closed on Sunday.
Every vote will count and yours might make the difference!
Sincerely,
Miles Higgins
President, Saint Francisville Chamber of Commerce
