Every campaign has two parts that lead up to getting the candidate’s name on the ballot. The first part is to actually register with the county/state and the second is by collecting petition signatures from those within your district so your name can appear on the ballot.

The number of signatures varies depending on the office, and the deadline to have those signatures varies as well. In Carl Zimmermann’s case, we need 1000 petition signatures by June 1st in order to appear on the ballot here in District 48.

While we are well on our way with volunteers collecting petition signatures at various locations throughout District 48, the Pasco County Democrats provided the PDF version of the official Carl Zimmermann petition form on their site. All you have to do is access the page (adobe acrobat required) and select the print option.

After you print it out, fill it out with your personal information and mail it to:
Carl Zimmermann Campaign
37578 US 19 N
Palm Harbor, Florida 34683

Note: You must be 18 years old or older and registered to vote in Florida State House District 48.

Carl joined Tom Stovall from Gay Pinellas this morning for an interview. You can listen to the Podcast here. Note: this is a very large file and not a recommended download for those on dialup.

In a 6-1 Ruling, the Florida Supreme Court struck down the proposed redistricting amendment from the November ballot.

You can read the official ruling by the court here.

Though the ballot measure was struck down, this does not change the fact that Carl supports improvements to redistricting by a non-partisan committee.

Samm Simpson needs a little help before April 10th.

Samm is planning on running for US House District 10 in Florida but needs 4100 petition signatures in order to get her name on the ballot. The deadline is looming large and we’re hoping that the readers in Florida’s 10th Congressional District can help get the word out and get those petition signatures for her.

If you want to help — simply print out the petition provided on Samm’s site and mail it to:

Samm Simpson for Congress
P.O. Box 228
Dunedin, Florida 34697
