The League of Women Voters of Frederick County

The League of Women Voters is a nonpartisan, but political, organization fully committed to diversity, equity, and inclusion in principle and in practice. We encourage the informed and active participation of citizens in government, work to increase understanding of major policy issues, and influence public policy through education and advocacy.

The League also takes positions on issues as varied as ranked-choice voting, affordable housing, distracted driving and local control of education but we do not support or oppose any political party or candidate for public office. 

The League provides voters with non-partisan information on all candidates for every election in the Voters'™ Guide, at Vote411.org and via candidate forums. Working with the County Board of Elections, League members serve as polling-place evaluators and sometimes election judges. The League also has a presence at many community events where we help people register to vote and provide other voting-related info.
