VOTE Alan Hays, Running for Lake County Supervisor of Elections

Public service is not new for Alan Hays. After a career in dentistry, he served in the Florida House and the Florida Senate before being elected Lake County Supervisor of Elections in 2016. His record of elections administration over the past seven years demonstrates his devotion to serving the voters with accurate and efficient elections.

When elected Lake County Supervisor of Elections, Alan made four commitments to the voters which he has fulfilled:

• Voter Confidence

• Excellent customer service

• Accurate and efficient elections

• Responsible financial stewardship

“We run an operation that is completely transparent and open to the public. Anyone can sign up to take a tour of our offices. We’re proud of what we do, and we’re happy to show voters how we do it.”

Making it Better

The transparency of the voting administration process is evident on the Supervisor of Election’s website where every rule and statute is explained, every method of voting is detailed and even the technology used on election day is displayed.

Alan worked to increase the integrity of the voting process by implementing a system for vote-by-mail with increased security measures. He also enhanced the training of election workers and installed a money-saving system for early voting.

The elections office might be the only county agency that ever returned money to the treasury. Money saving measures have allowed the agency to return more than $3 million to the county commission. 

“I thoroughly enjoy the job and working with this team of people. I hope the voters are gracious enough to allow me to continue doing it.”
