Nominiations Deadline 2026

League of Women Voters of Wheaton — Nominating Committee

The Nominating Committee of the League of Women Voters of Wheaton (LWVW) invites all voting members to participate in selecting our next slate of leaders.

We are seeking nominations and self-nominations for upcoming vacancies on the LWVW Board of Directors, including officer and director positions.

The League of Women Voters of Wheaton is proud to sponsor Declaration 1776: The Big Bang of Modern Democracy, a traveling panel exhibition from the Gilder Lehrman Institute of American History, as our community marks the United States’ Semiquicentennial. As we approach America’s 250th birthday, this exhibit invites our community to revisit the bold ideals of the Declaration—and to reflect on how each generation has worked to expand the promise of democracy.

Exploring the Constitution Foundations to Front Pages
Register You only need to register once to be registered for all sessions.

Join us for a virtual series that explores the U.S. Constitution through both its historical foundations and its ongoing relevance in today’s headlines. Each session, held the third Thursday evening of each month at 7:00 pm, will take a deeper look at how the framers’ debates, amendments, and landmark interpretations continue to shape the issues we see in the news—from voting rights and separation of powers to free speech, federalism, and more.
