Vote on Tuesday. Exercise Your Right. Proclaim Your Voice.

It’s this simple. Justine PETERSEN includes in its core values statement the following:

“We are proactive and responsive to the needs of the community and the people we serve.”

And to further this end, we must ask all those in the community to uphold our democracy by voting for candidates who unequivocally believe in free and fair elections this Tuesday, November 8th.

Because we all deserve from our leaders: accountability, courage, truth, and a start to preventing all violence.

See you at the polls this Tuesday.
