of Kent

The Voters & Candidates Face2Face forum sponsored by the League of Women Voters of Kent is going virtual, and the community is invited. Voters can talk with county candidates in contested general election races on Saturday, Sept. 19, starting at 9 a.m. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, this event will be hosted in an online meeting format through Zoom. The forum is free and open to the public, but registration is required.

The new program year for the League of Women Voters of Kent will kick off online Thursday, Sept. 10, at 7 p.m. New member orientation begins at 6 p.m. We have scheduled the event for the same night as the monthly online All Member Meeting. Log on to hear a presentation about microaggressions in everyday life. The speaker is Sunny Matthews, a motivational speaker focusing on issues of diversity, inclusion, and anti-racism.

We'll hear from LWV Kent member Terrie Nielsen, also on staff at the Portage County Board of Elections, about the 2020 Primary in Portage County and what's in store for the General in November. It's complicated.

At the June 17 online meeting, Kent League members will discuss and come to consensus on a set of questions about health equity in Ohio.
