Voters' Service

Priscilla Thain directs Voters' Service, which is often the aspect of the League most visible to the public. Members register voters at locations around the county. They formulate questions for local candidates, compile their answers, and publish them as Candidates' Answers in Isthmus and online. They also arrange for a Spanish-language edition of Candidates' Answers. The League trains members to moderate candidate forums, and provides moderators when requested to do so. LWVDC also conducts interviews of local candidates, which are broadcast on the city cable channel. And, on Election Day, League members staff the office phones to answer questions about how, when, and where to vote.
