Vote411.org. What is it? What Does It Provide?

A wonderful opportunity to see local and national candidates’ voter information on−line!

This election season, LWVMC will participate in the LWVUS’s national online Election Guide, Vote411.org.

Launched by the LWVUS Education Fund, in 2006, Vote411.org is a national database containing non− partisan election−related information for the public on all aspects of the election process. You will be able to find your precinct, all the candidates in your area and other voting information in one central place − a “one−stop−shop.” We will also be able to link this to our web site.

The state league is promoting this and will be paying LWVUS $6,000 to cover the statewide cost. Our portion is $50. LWVCO will also cover the US House of Representatives, Colorado Legislature, State Board of Education, and CU Regents. LWVCO (Karen Connor) will provide technical support and a media press kit to promote this national database. We will be working with local candidates.

Candidates will be instructed to enter their experience and answers to a questionnaire directly to the web site.
