City of Lancaster launches FlashVote to gather community feedback

Lancaster, CA. February 10, 2026. The City of Lancaster is pleased to announce a new partnership with FlashVote, an online community engagement platform that gathers resident feedback and informs City decision-making.

Through FlashVote, Lancaster residents can quickly and easily share their opinions on important local issues. Participation is simple, anonymous, and takes less than a minute to sign up.

Once registered, participants may choose how they receive surveys, including by email, text message or phone call. FlashVote will send 1-minute surveys up to once a month. Each survey remains open for 48 hours, allowing residents flexibility to respond at their convenience. After a survey closes, participants automatically receive a summary of the overall results and can see how their responses compare with others in the community.

Feedback is completely anonymous, and personal and demographic information collected by FlashVote is never shared with the City or any third party.

"Hearing directly from our residents matters," said Mayor R. Rex Parris. "FlashVote makes it easier for the community to share their input, and that feedback helps shape how we move Lancaster forward."

Residents are encouraged to register now at flashvote.com/lancasterca or by calling 775-235-2240 to participate via phone or text message only.
