SUPPORT PMC'S EDUCATIONAL PROGRAMMING ON JUDICIAL ELECTIONS
PMC is one of the few organizations in Pennsylvania to hold public forums with judicial candidates. Judicial elections historically have very low turnout, due to a number of reasons, including a lack of knowledge about the role of judges and a lack of easily-accessible information about the candidates.

Each judicial election year, PMC aims to address both of these issues with candidates' forums and programs about the electoral process and ways to evaluate judicial candidates. This programming would not be possible without the support of our donors.

If you believe that it is important to make judicial election information easily-accessible to voters, so that they can make informed decisions about all of the candidates on the ballot, please make a donation of $5, $20, $100, or $500 today to support this important work. No amount is too little.
I want to help make judicial election information more accessible to voters
