 Bev Kennedy is Democratic, Bold & Experienced ! - Beverly Kennedy serves as our trustee !
 Elect Beverly Kennedy as the Democratic nominee for the  new  Broward County Clerk of the Circuit Court, Constitutional officer and first public trustee of the people August 14, 2012 !
 
       Kennedy will help solve these Broward County Courthouse  problems:
   #1. The Clerk of Court's employees are now all "At Will" employees, which means they can be fired without cause or warning ! Democratic values and labor laws blatantly ignored by the incumbent's Administrator of the Clerk of Courts office! Employee morale is depressed. The services of the incumbent Clerk of Courts office for the public and Judges are poor ! Educated, experienced and professional managers have been replaced with low performing, only political experience(with high school degrees or a G.E.D.)Administrators without professional experience chosen by the incumbent Clerk of Court.  The Florida Constitutional Duties of the Clerk of the Circuit Court are ignored! The people have no one speaking up for their priorities.
     #2.  The Broward County Downtown Fort Lauderdale Courthouse has the most expensive and NIGHTMARISH PARKING problems.($8/hr.- $60./day; especially for the average working person the parking rates around the Courthouse are outrageous , and parking for the disabled and seniors the worst !  Bev Kennedy will change this!
    #3.  There are 3 other Broward Courthouses (West ,South, & North). All three are under- utilized , yet have free parking and easy handicap accessibility. Beverly Kennedy promises as Clerk of Circuit Court we will use the Supreme Court Mandated Electronic Filing to bring all Court Services to each Courthouse for the people .(Bev Kennedy pledged this reform three years ago; and has helped deliver this reform !)
  #4     Last year we would have paid off our debt on  all four Courthouses that have been on our tax bills for the last 20 years ! The bond issue was renewed without Public Hearing or vote by  the  People of Broward County! This must never happen again !
  #5    And guess who should  provide the role of Trustee  for the people of Broward to implement "Checks & Balances" for the County?.....Would you believe  the  public trustee for us  (should be, but is not) .... The incumbent, (39 year politician experience only),Forman,12 year incumbent, Broward Clerk of Court !    Read  the description of duties of the Clerk of the Circuit Court according to our Florida State Constitution . ( The Broward County incumbent  Clerk of Court, Forman is the only Clerk in the State that ignores  completely the Constitutional duties  set in the  Florida Constitution. Click here X " I promise I will follow the State Constitution , pledges Bev Kennedy !
                 Why  Should We Care ? 
    Political risk, the lack of professional  management services for our County, and the lack of Democratic principles destroys our County's reputation ,  This discourages  business owners from transferring  their corporations here. New Capital goes to Dade or Palm Beach which causes a lack of good paying jobs in Broward. As a result, the hard working middle class families  move out of Broward. We have 25,000 empty school seats this year !         
  BeverlyKennedy offers practical solutions  which will save a half a billion dollars for Broward County ! She has 33 years of public service  and award winning  financial and business experienceKennedy  has 22 years of  professional management knowledge of Broward Clerk's office and over 3 decades of experience as a Trustee for the public.
