COUNTDOWN TO ELECTION 2024 and POST ELECTION CELEBRATION OF DEMOCRACY

 

Every election, we get the chance to shape our democracy with our vote. This is democracy in action! Every vote deserves to be counted. Democracy is worth waiting for!

 

Election Day a little over 2 weeks away - JOIN the League of Women Voters GOTV efforts in shaping our democracy with our VOTE!

 

Three great and easy activities for League members to do:

 

1. On Tuesday, October 22 from 11:30 am to 1:30 pm we are labeling 5,000 GOTV postcards to be mailed to women voters throughout Arizona! Where: League member, Marianne Schaefer has offered to host this GOTV event at her home: 1106 So. Ochoa Street, Cottonwood.
 
2. Participate in LWVAZ TEXTING or PHONE BANKING events!
  • TEXTING is very easy and can be done anytime! Texting campaigns are being held every week to reach Arizona women voters 18-65.  Your texts urge women voters who have not voted to vote early, skip the lines, and vote the full ballot. 

    Download the League in Action app on your cellphone at this link:  https://vc0.co/OZ5 , following the instructions for signing up to text!

  • PHONE BANKING is underway! We have phone banking campaigns to reach women voters 18-65.  We plan to reach over half a million women voters in Arizona. Your phone calls will urge women voters who have not voted to vote early, skip the lines, and vote the full ballot. After you have downloaded the League in Action app using the link above, watch for notifications for phone banking actions.

 

3. Prepare yourself, your family, friends and neighbors to VOTE by using Vote411.org to find out about the candidates running in your local, state, and national races!

JOIN us for a CELEBRATION OF OUR DEMOCRACY at our POST Election Day Member Event: MARK YOUR CALENDAR for November 7 from 3:00 to 4:30 pm

 

WHERE: Yavapai County Building, Verde Room (2nd Floor) 10 So. 6th Street Cottonwood, AZ 86326

 

We may be waiting for the final results of the 2024 election BUT we want to take a moment to Celebrate and Thank all of the LWV Northern Arizona members who registered voters, who worked on candidate forums, and participated in statewide VOTE411 activities.  Let’s share our stories!  Here is one story to share with you as you MARK YOUR CALENDAR to join us on November 7!

 

From League member Babe Gerstner: Here is my story as a part of the voter registration team: My friends and I set up a voter registration table up in the Cottonwood area 3 times a week for 3 or 4 months. During that time, we registered about 30 people, answered 100s of voter questions and gave out hundreds of the LWV important voter information cards plus several cards with the URL to register to vote with on your phone.

 

We enjoyed socializing with each other and those who stopped by the table.  One day a lady and her 17-year-old daughter stopped by wondering when her daughter could register to vote. We told her about needing to be 18 before the election. They both started smiling and the mother said the daughter would be 18 on the 22nd of October. The daughter totally enjoyed registering to vote with us and took the card with the URL code for her friends. I very much enjoyed meeting the public and giving out information for voting.

 

And we want to thank voters for turning out to make sure their voices were heard. And we owe huge gratitude to the people who made our elections run: the poll workers, election officials, election observers, postal workers, and volunteers. DEMOCRACY is a beautiful thing it is!

 

🗳️ We Vote. And⏲️ We may wait. But🎉We can celebrate Democracy!
