Volunteer with us!

Anne Daley - Ballot Cure Coordinator for the FDP spoke at our last DEC meeting about the need for volunteers to help with calls to voters with ballots that need to be cured for either address or signature issues. So far, the state has 13,000 mail in ballots that need curing! And of course the same will be needed after the general election in November. This is a very worthwhile project - as noted in 2024 when these calls resulted in an additional 10,000 votes!  You don't need a background in elections or a law degree, but if you have that experience we need you, too. If you can give a few hours and bring a willingness to show up for your fellow Floridians, you can help protect the right to vote in 2026. Training is every Saturday at 10am and Tuesday at 2pm. Calls to voters will be made on your own time.  Complete the form, click the button below to reserve your training session or go straight to https://stech.floridadems.org/fdp-ballot-cure-training. 

Florida’s vote-by-mail rules have changed—and many Charlotte Democrats are no longer signed up to get a mail ballot in 2026. These are some of our most reliable voters—and unless we reach them, many could be left behind. Your quick, helpful conversations will make a real difference. You can make calls whenever it works for you–anytime between 9am-8pm on Mon-Sat, and 11am-7pm on Sun!  Sign up to be sent all the details and begin making your calls. Training and support provided.

This is more than just an event—it’s a chance to connect with people who believe in democracy, progress, and a brighter future for Florida and the nation. You’ll hear from candidates, recognize influential organizations and leaders, and experience the kind of inspiration that turns hope into action. DJ Charlie will provide background and dance music. Mike Haymans and Paul Cotterell will also be performing. The St. Mary's Baptist Church will bring a prayer dance. Come for the excitement. Leave energized for what’s ahead. Get your ticket today and stand with us as we rally for the future. Wings and sides included, cash bar.  Prize will be awarded for best decorated table. 

The casual, family-friendly event is free and open to the public. It marks a major milestone as Montavon accelerates his general election campaign to represent Florida’s 17th Congressional District in the U.S. House of Representatives. Attendees will have the opportunity to speak directly with Montavon, ask questions, and share their concerns regarding local and national issues.

Millions of Americans say that environmental protection is one of the most important issues facing our country. Yet many of them did not vote in the 2024 presidential election. It's likely that many more skip midterm, state, and local elections. We need these voters if we are to elect candidates who are committed to protecting Florida's natural resources. Democratic Environmental Caucus of Florida  members partner with the local Sierra Club to nudge Floridians who care about the environment but don't vote. Join online or in person for training and a group calling session. The dialer connects you only with people who answer the phone. No dialing and dialing and leaving voicemails. But it only works if we are all on the dialer from 2:00 to 3:30 together. A script and technical assistance is available.
