It is the intent of the Council in establishing the Panel to create a body to review
the voter registration and the election process, procedures, and experiences in Duval
County to advise the Supervisor of Elections Office in efforts to increase voter registration,
enhance voter election experience and assist in candidate education to ensure a fair,
impartial and effective election process. In response to the 2000 and 2004 general
elections, the Florida Legislature rewrote Florida's elections laws to ensure a consistent
and unified election system for use in Florida's 67 counties. This effort standardized many of the election processes each Supervisor
of Elections is now required to follow. As such, the initial charge of the Panel is
no longer applicable. However, the Council recognizes that it is still valuable to
have a body of registered Duval County voters who can provide the Supervisor of Elections
with insight and recommendations regarding the election process and election day experience.
The Supervisor of Elections shall appear before the Panel at the Panel's next regularly
scheduled meeting, or as soon after as practicable, at least two times per calendar
year as follows: (1) after each election cycle to summarize and discuss the election
experience during the election cycle and (2) after receipt of the Panel's report required
in Section 59.105(e) to comment on or address any issues raised in the Panel's report.
