CIVICS AND YOU!
Learn All the Basics - Know Your Power!
Come! Join your neighbors for a free community civics event happening this September and October!
- Hear Inglemoor teacher, Alexandra Baker*, talk about voting, past and present.
- Learn about your role in your community and why your engagement counts.
This is a three-part series, and you are welcome to come to one, two or all three sessions.
Learn about the history of your vote— from the start of the nation through the ongoing fight against voter suppression.
Learn about voter turnout. Why people vote/don’t vote.
Learn about a nonpartisan, issue-agnostic process for selecting candidates whose values and priorities support your own.
All three sessions will be held at Kenmore City Hall
Location: 18120 68th Ave NE, Kenmore, WA 98028
Time: 6:30pm - 8:00pm
This community event is sponsored by League of Women Voters Seattle King County (LWVSKC). LWVSKC members will be at each session offering voter registration/change of address services and King County Elections may be there as well to answer your questions.
Then stay tuned for candidate forums led by area high school students coming later in October!
Elections are coming soon! Be informed! Be a Voter!
