Why It Matters
The leaders we elect make decisions that affect our daily lives. Elections are our chance to stand up for what matters most to us and to have an impact on the issues that affect us, our communities, our families and our future.
What We're Doing
We host hundreds of candidate debates and forums across the country each year and provide straightforward information about candidates and ballot issues. Through print and online resources, including VOTE411.org, we equip voters with essential information about the election process in each state, including polling place hours and locations, ballot information, early or absentee voting rules, voter registration deadlines, ID requirements and more.

Online voter registration is taking hold across the country. But almost every system leaves out a significant part of the population – citizens who don’t have a driver’s license or ID.
I have been taking this time to think about all that I am thankful for this year – and one of the biggest things is you! You have made this an amazing year for LWV and for our democracy.
Attending the Election Protection convening made me excited for what’s ahead in 2015. I’m looking forward to hearing about the successes that will emerge next year.
