    I just found out today that because we live on 39th ave, at 51st st, we’re not considered part of “the city” and therefore we can’t vote in this election. To say my partner and I are furious is putting it quite mildly. I have written emails to the Board of Elections and to Equality Florida trying to get thoughts on who I can contact tryint to rectify this. Everything I’ve found only talks about the annexation of 20th ave, and around I-75, but nothing about us. Little did I know that we weren’t considered part of the city, despite how this amendment can affect us. If anyone has any ideas for who else I can contact, please let me know. My irritation is growing by the minute just knowing that my vote will not count, but the decisions of this vote will affect us immensely. Thanks.
