We, the sponsors of the survey, do not endorse any candidate for election. However, we believe an informed electorate is a responsible electorate. Our purpose is to inform Florida Catholic constituents of candidates’ positions on significant moral issues. Along with posting results on the Internet, constituents can read results a week before the elections in The Florida Catholic newspaper and in more than 500 parish bulletins across the state.

It is our hope and prayer, that this election will be one of a frank, democratic discussion of the issues and that the best qualified persons are indeed elected to serve us in this great State - FLORIDA!
