Residents looking to make sense of the upcoming election will have a chance to do just that at “What’s on the Ballot?” a voter education forum hosted by the St. Pete Chamber at Bayfront Hospital on Sept. 28, 2025. The event is designed to help voters understand the measures and candidates appearing on the ballot, offering a clearer picture of what they’ll be deciding when they head to the polls.
In a year when local and state issues can be especially complex, forums like this one give community members the opportunity to ask questions, hear from informed speakers, and compare positions before voting. The Bayfront Hospital setting adds a civic focus to the discussion, underscoring the importance of public awareness and participation in the democratic process.
The forum is part of a packed week of local events highlighted by I Love the Burg, but it stands out as one of the most practical offerings on the calendar. With elections often decided by small margins, voter education can play a major role in turnout and informed decision-making. For anyone who wants to go to the ballot box prepared, this event promises a useful and timely overview of what’s at stake.
