A Message from Alan Hays

Lake County's Supervisor of Elections

 

In this month of July, we all celebrate the founding of our nation and the bravery and commitment to freedom of those founding fathers in 1776. May we never ever take for granted the courage and the fortitude that it took for those men and women of that day to stand up boldly for the cause of freedom. Let each of us honor their sacrifice by passing on to the coming generations our respect and appreciation for those sacrifices. 

In this 24-hour news cycle world that we are living in, being an astute voter has never been more important. Election offices throughout our great state, including our own are on the forefront of a battle against election administration misinformation.

I and my team take great pride in the work that we do and, in our ability, to conduct accurate and efficient elections with transparency. For more than five years we have offered community members the opportunity to schedule a tour on Tuesdays and Thursdays, schedule permitting, of our facility. We recently held an open house event which was tremendously received by attendees.

Our desire to reach and arm more voters with facts instead of fiction was fueled by our successful open house.  The idea of a virtual tour was born and is now available on our website at Virtual Tour. 

There are four virtual tour segments, and I would like to encourage you to watch each one. I also want you to invite your children, grandchildren, nephews, nieces, that young person next door to watch with you. Being a voter isn’t enough. We must also raise up the next generation of voters.

I’d like to thank the team of SouthLake.TV  who made this virtual option possible for our community. Our right to vote is one of our most important civil rights. Being an informed voter honors all those who gave us that right and the privileges we enjoy today.

Thank you for the privilege of serving as your Supervisor of Elections.

Lake County Supervisor of Elections Warns Voters Of Unofficial Mailings

Tavares, FL- Lake County Supervisor of Elections, Alan Hays, is again alerting citizens of Lake County about misleading materials they may be receiving in the mail. The mail-outs are a request to receive a vote-by-mail ballot.
These mailers originate from the Center for Voter Information (CVI), a third-party organization not associated with the Lake County Supervisor of Elections. The address lists for previous mailings from the CVI organization have proven to have been outdated and infected with incorrect data. They tell us the first wave of mailings will be sent July 18 and the last wave in early September.
Our office, two weeks ago, sent an official mailer to all voters who had not previously requested a vote-by-mail ballot. That mailer, among other topics, included a vote-by-mail request form for voters to complete if they chose that voting option.
"We feel that the 52,000 mailers scheduled to be released by CVI will create many calls and concerns when voters just received an official mailer from our office. Lake County voters who wish to request a vote-by-mail ballot for the upcoming elections are encouraged do so by using the Voter Information Lookup Tool on our website: www.LakeVotes.com, or by calling our office at 352.343.9734, and to not rely on the information sent by this third party organization," commented Hays.
Vote-by-mail request forms are also available at area libraries and at the elections office. The deadline to request a mail ballot for the Primary Election is August 8th @ 5 pm. “We would like to encourage all citizens of Lake County to utilize our office as the trusted source of information whether it is requesting a vote-by-mail ballot or registering to vote. We are proud to serve and happy to assist you with your voter services needs," Hays further elaborated.
Voters who wish to vote in the upcoming August 18th Primary Election must be registered to vote by Monday, July 20th. This is also the deadline for voters to update their party affiliation if they wish to vote in a party's primary.
