Taylor is running against Berryhill, who has run for
numerous offices and made a fortune doing so. Berryhill
has little respect for his constituents, or the issues but
instead keeps running for different offices to hold on to
power and to stroke his own ego. Taylor is a common
sense candidate and is running to represent the voter's
needs and the issues.
Give Taylor White your vote.

“I’m in this race because I want to stop talking about the outrage of 47 million
Americans without health care and start actually doing something about it. I’m
in this race to end our dependence on Middle East oil and save our planet
from the crisis of climate change so we can give our children a planet that’s
cleaner and safer than we found it.
“As president, I will end the war in Iraq, a war that I opposed from the
beginning and that should never have been authorized. I will finish the fight
against Al Qaeda. And I will lead the world to combat the common threats of
the 21st century - nuclear weapons and terrorism; climate change and
poverty; genocide and disease.
“America, our moment is now. I don’t want to spend the next year or the
next four years re-fighting the same fights that we had in the 1990s. I don’t
want to pit Red America against Blue America, I want to be the President of
the United States of America.
“That’s why I’m asking you to stand with me, that’s why I’m asking you to
vote for me, that’s why I’m asking you to stop settling for what the cynics say
we have to accept. In this election - in this moment - let us reach for what we
know is possible. A nation healed. A world repaired. An America that
believes again.” -- Barack Obama

Do you need an ID to vote?
If you are in your home precinct, and you are on the roster, you do not need to show any ID to vote.
If you are waiting in line to vote when the polls close:
You can vote if you are in the polling place or in line before 8:00 pm on Election Day.
If you need time off from work to vote:
You can take up to two hours off work to vote without loss of pay by giving your employer notice by the
end of the day on Thursday, May 29th.
If anyone challenges you on your right to vote based upon your citizenship, residence or identity:
The ONLY person who can challenge your right to vote is an official County precinct worker. Intimidating
voters is against the law. Please report any incident like this to official precinct workers.
If you need a non-English ballot:
You can ask for a ballot in your language.
If not available, there may be a posted translation.
If you need help voting because of a disability:

If you make a mistake on your ballot:
If you make a mistake, you have the right to twice receive a replacement ballot.
“Provisional” Ballots
If there is ever a question about your right to vote, you can always vote by “Provisional Ballot.” A
“Provisional Ballot” is the same as a regular ballot, but it won’t be counted until county officials are able to
confirm your registration information after the election. In some cases, documentation of your residence
address may be required.
You should vote a “Provisional Ballot” IF:
Election officials can’t confirm your registration.
You received a vote-by-mail ballot but never returned it.
Records show that you have moved.
It appears that you have already voted.
You are voting at a polling place outside your home precinct.
