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.

“In celebration of February Youth Voter Month, the League of Women Voters of Larimer County [CO] hosted a contest for high school students...to offer thoughts about why they look forward to voting.”
“Community voter registration drives serve a public purpose. They help get more people to the polls. In theory, at least, something considered a good thing ... That's where groups, such as the League of Women Voters... come in. We should encourage their efforts, not discourage them, while still making sure this vital job gets done right.”
Florida Restricts Independent Voter Registration Drives
“... The state has imposed new rules restricting third-party voter registration drives, which are so onerous that Rock the Vote, the League of Women Voters and the Florida Public Interest Research Group Education Fund have had to suspend their volunteer-led programs.”
