Find Answers to Your Midterm Election Questions With JCRC’s Election Toolkits

Early voting has started and the general election is less than two weeks away! Federation’s Jewish Community Relations Council (JCRC) has developed an Election Toolkit to help registered voters in Miami-Dade County access information on how to request a mail-in ballot, vote early or vote on Election Day. It also allows voters to find their voting precinct. The Toolkit is part of JCRC's larger civic engagement effort to engage and inform voters in Miami-Dade County about important election match-ups, initiatives and issues that will impact the broader community. This includes the upcoming vote on Referendum 2 in Miami Beach, which the JCRC is urging community members to support by voting “YES.” If passed, Referendum 2 would provide essential funds for the Holocaust Memorial Miami Beach and many other cherished arts and culture institutions in the City.
