Solano County

Welcome! Founded in Benicia, our Solano County League (LWVSC) is strong and growing -- from Benicia, Cordelia, Dixon, Fairfield, Vallejo, Vacaville, Suisun City, Rio Vista, and more, reflecting the diversity of Solano County.

The League of Women Voters is an organization of women and men that is non-partisan, community-based, and is organized at the local, state, and national levels. Our mission is to promote political responsibility through the informed and active participation of citizens in governance and to act on selected and studied common-good governmental issues and policies.
