Many of our LWV voter registration activities have been idled with the need for social distancing. However, you can’t keep League members down for long!

President Gretchen Sabel and Membership Chair Pat Kennedy designed an eye-catching postcard to be sent to persons on lists of unregistered voters  providing clear, helpful steps for voter registration – including helpful phone numbers, outreach for those without computers, and of course, why to register to vote.  The images above are what was sent.  
 
Arlene Gillett recruited 10 LWV volunteers to address postcards to unregistered voters.   LWV ABC's Youth Civic Engagement Fellow, Hailey Shaiger, led a group of Coon Rapids High School National Honor Society students in this project.  All together, the volunteers mailed 750 postcards to unregistered voters in Anoka County!   

We are looking for more projects like this that provide effective outreach and can be done from home - join our Voter Service team to help identify these projects and get them done.  Email us at lwvabc@gmail.com to volunteer.
