Election Day 2013 is just five days away. On November 5th, millions of voters across the country will head to the polls and stand up for what matters most in our communities and our lives.League of Women Voters continues to prepare voters with information about the candidates and issues on their ballots through voters’ guides, on League websites, including www.VOTE411.org nationwide, and smartvoter.org in California.

Voters who stay home on Election Day are missing the opportunity to take part in building stronger communities and to have a say on the issues that matter most to them. There’s a reason why Lyndon B. Johnson called the vote “the most powerful instrument ever devised by man” and why Carrie Chapman Catt called it “the emblem of our equality.” Voting is the very foundation of our great democracy.

Here is information about all of the elections taking place in the ten communities served by League of Women Voters – Pasadena area:
