Thanks to a great team of petition circulators and speakers, in 2019 we returned 60+ petitions with more than 500 signatures. I set our League goal at 1,000 signatures. We have almost 3 more months and I think we can reach this number.
100 years later, women still power the vote through their management of campaigns for candidates and ballot measures, and by successfully campaigning to become elected officials themselves. In our county, we can be proud of the number of women in leadership roles.
The League is already getting requests to help register voters or train registrars, and to participate in advocacy training with a focus on voter turnout. Check out the opportunities to join our Voter Service activities!
