The League of Women Voters launched a “Get Out the Vote” campaign aimed at strengthening local democracy and voter turnout in Vanderburgh County with a press conference on August 8.  Community leaders gathered to recognize the 61st anniversary of the 1965 Voting Rights Act... Officials said Indiana ranks among the bottom five states in the nation for voter turnout, and Vanderburgh County is among the areas affected. ..On Saturday from 9 a.m. to noon at McCollough Library, a postcard writing event was scheduled, targeted toward writing postcards to newly registered voters and first-time voters.

 

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.

LEARN WITH THE LEAGUE: We bring in speakers to talk about topics that concern us at our Town Halls and Lunches.

CANDIDATE FORUMS: We host forums for various Evansville/Vanderburgh County offices.
 
VOTER READINESS: We do voter registration and education 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 and Warrick 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, share information with our members and friends, and take action.

GUN SAFETY: Educating parents and children about how to protect themselves around guns.

REDISTRICTING: We follow and oppose mid-decade redistricting efforts.

MAKING DEMOCRACY WORK AWARD: Each year at our annual meeting we present an award to a member of our community who has demonstrated exceptional effort on the positions that the League of Women Voters espouses.
