Save Our Sarasota
Read Kristina's letter to District 2 →“We are not fighting for a title — we are fighting to save our Sarasota. To protect the families whose streets flood, the neighbors priced out by runaway spending, and every tax dollar wasted while county government grows. I cannot do it alone. I need you beside me.”
Why Your Time Matters
Protect Sarasota families. Fight Waste. Save Our Sarasota.
This campaign is not about rallies and yard signs for their own sake. It is about whether District 2 families get a commissioner who audits spending, fixes infrastructure, and helps reduce your tax burden — or four more years of yes votes on runaway budgets. Your time moves us closer to real accountability and lower taxes.
Protect Sarasota Families
Commissioners decide whether stormwater gets fixed, roads keep pace with growth, and your neighborhood stays affordable. Volunteers put a veteran and mother in office who will protect Sarasota families — not bureaucracy.
Help Reduce Your Tax Burden
County spending jumped while your bills climbed. Every door you knock and every call you make helps elect someone who will audit every dollar, cut waste, and deliver real accountability and lower taxes.
Save Our Sarasota Together
This is a neighbor-powered campaign — Sarasota residents talking to Sarasota residents. No out-of-town machine. Just people who love this community and are building the future we deserve.
Your Hour Moves the Needle
Mark Smith won by 373 votes. In a race this close, your outreach — one conversation, one yard sign, one shift — can be the margin that helps Kristina Sargent win and saves Sarasota from four more years of runaway spending.
