Local voters will be able to get a COVID-19 vaccine when they vote for their new representative in the U.S. Congress.
The Broward County Supervisor of Elections office is launching a “Vote & Vax” program this month for the U.S. District 20 Special Primary Election.
The vaccination push is a partnership between the supervisor’s office, the Florida Department of Health of Broward County, and Broward County Transit.
“Vote and Vax helps boost community vaccination rates by offering voters the opportunity to cast their ballots and then safely and easily get their vaccination nearby,” said Ivan Castro, Voter Engagement and Communications Coordinator for the Broward County Supervisor of Elections.
This service is offered from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m., October 23 through October 31, at all early voting sites for the District 20 primary.
