Voter registration is just one of the critical ways in which the League defends our democracy and this year we re seeing new levels of enthusiasm among young and first-time voters. But we can't stop there. Right through Election Day and beyond we're empowering voters to carry out their responsibilities as new voters, explaining what to expect at the polls and providing accurate, up-to-date voting and election information through our VOTE411.org online resource.

7 League of Women Voters of Alpena County September 2018 Adapted from the League of Women Voters of the Ann Arbor Area Newsletter: As you may imagine, we are very busy preparing for the November election, so if you ve been sitting around wondering how you can make the world Safe for Democracy, you ve come to the right place! The great thing is, you don t have to be able to fly or see through walls in order to be a superhero with the League of Women Voters. Whatever your superpower is, we ve got a place for it. For instance: Greeters Do you like making people feel at home? Then you re in luck! We have several candidate forums requiring Greeters. All you need to do is, well, greet people as they come in, make sure they have the information they need, and make them feel welcome. And, depending on the forum, you might also get to meet your state or federal representative or other candidate that you might not otherwise get to see. Timers Do you like watching the clock? Great! We need two Timers at each of our forums, and, for those shy people among us, you don t even need to talk just hold up the signs we give you, indicating how much time each speaker has left. Most of our forums are less than two hours, so you won t even wear out your sign-holding hand. In most cases, you ll be back home in time to catch the news before bed. Moderators Do you like asking questions and controlling a room? Then we ve got just the job for you! We still need moderators for a couple of our forums. This involves asking questions that have been prepared for you, and making sure that the candidates follow the rules and don t get out of control. If you ve ever had kids, you ll know exactly what to do. Delivery people Do you like Defending Democracy while you run errands? Then we need you! We need people to deliver our printed Voter Guides to various locations in the Ann Arbor Area. All you need to do is take them to the addresses we give you, and you will have done your part in creating an informed electorate. Voter Registration Do you want to give the next generation of voters their start? Then you ve come to the right place! Voter Registration is one of the most important things the League does, and you can be a part of it. You have to be trained (next class is September 5th), but there is still time (October 9th is the deadline) to create a new batch of voters. When it comes to Defending Democracy, there is no more important task. So there you have it. This is by no means a comprehensive list, but these are some of the jobs we desperately need to fill going into the election. They don t require a long-term commitment, and at least one of them can be done on your own time. We have plenty of others, so if you don t see what you want (and especially if you do), please give me a call or text ( ) or an (jdfeys@hotmail.com) to let Doris know what you re interested in, and she ll make sure that you are Saving Democracy with the rest of us.
