Voting is a fundamental right and all eligible voters should have the equal opportunity to exercise that right. We are dedicated to ensuring that our elections remain free, fair and accessible.
Every day, the freedom to vote is under attack. Since the Supreme Court decision of Shelby County v. Holder that gutted the Voting Rights Act (VRA), at least twenty-nine states have passed ninety-four laws that make it harder to vote, with the burden falling hardest on Black voters and other voters of color.
The LWVSC participated in Voter Registration/Get Out the Vote Day on September 20th. The event was hosted by Professor Emily Lynch. Keynote speaker was Secretary of State Greg Amore.
Join us for our next meeting where we'll discuss upcoming tabling opportunities and other events. Contact Gwen Wagner or Diana Boxer at vote [at] lwv-alachua.org
