Oakland County Board of Canvassers:

Sign up Genius is available for members to sign up for times ranging from 2 to 4 hours.
Contact Jim Treharne at LWVOAMi [at] gmail.com (LWVOAMi@gm)ail.com for more info.
LWVOA Observer Corps Revival 2025:
With local school boards the targets of controversy, members are encouraged to watch, in person or via Zoom, monthly meetings of one of the 28 Oakland County School Districts. Issues arising in school district meetings will be discussed at quarterly (every three months) group meetings. Possible actions by LWVOA members may include drafting questions for the Candidate Forums, Action Alerts to legislators, etc.
Please see the LWVUS "Guide to Observing Your Government" by clicking here.
Guidance, instructions, and selection of the school boards to observe will be provided at an August meeting, date/time TBD. We hope to have an active Observer Corps in place by the beginning of the school year, September 2025.
