Not announcing-just exploring how much work it might be, and whether the workload/risk/reward is worth it. My only intent would be to represent and communicate, not reinvent or radicalize any 'wheels' in motion for years. Thoughts?
It is too late to become a candidate for 2024. The deadline was in May.

The election to seats on a VCDD Board is handled by the Sumter County Supervisor of Elections for all VCDDs that are in Sumter County. For most of the seats, there is only one candidate; that candidate automatically wins the seat and does not appear on the November ballot. The process to become a candidate normally requires a minimum number of petitions. For more information see: Candidates
