The League letter of support was read into public comment at today's DuPage County Board meeting. Clerk Kaczmarek reached out to let us know she is very appreciative.

As many municipalities approach their local elections in April, the League of Women Voters in Dupage County would like to pause and acknowledge the outstanding work of the Dupage County Election Commission who successfully held a free, fair and safe election in the midst of historic turnout and complicated by Covid-19.

The November 3, 2020 election was the most ever cast in an election and DuPage was no exception.
