LEAGUE OF WOMEN VOTERS OF SOUTHWESTERN INDIANA: WHAT WE DO
MEET YOUR LEGISLATORS: We are one of the sponsors of this series of events that takes place at EVPL Central Library on the second Saturday of each month during each legislative session. State legislators with territory in Vanderburgh County are invited. The public comes to hear from their legislators and to ask questions about legislation.
CANDIDATE FORUMS: We host forums for various Evansville/Vanderburgh County offices.
VOTER REGISTRATION: Our Voter Services committee conducts voter registration activities at various sites around the community.
VOTE411: VOTE411.org is a "one-stop-shop" for election related information. It provides nonpartisan information to the public with both general and state-specific information on various aspects of the election process. During each primary and general election season we survey Vanderburgh County candidates about their attitudes on important issues and make the information available via the VOTE411 website.
ENVIRONMENT: We monitor local and statewide environmental issues and share information with our members and friends.
GUN SAFETY: Educating parents and children about how to proctect themselves.
