Why It Matters
The leaders we elect make decisions that affect our daily lives. Elections are our chance to stand up for what matters most to us and to have an impact on the issues that affect us, our communities, our families and our future.
What We're Doing
We host hundreds of candidate debates and forums across the country each year and provide straightforward information about candidates and ballot issues. Through print and online resources, including VOTE411.org, we equip voters with essential information about the election process in each state, including polling place hours and locations, ballot information, early or absentee voting rules, voter registration deadlines, ID requirements and more.

(which includes Macy’s, Bloomingdale’s, and Bluemercury), Lyft, and Microsoft to promote active participation in the democratic process to both employees and consumers, providing nonpartisan election information, and registering and mobilizing voters.

Marilyn McLeod’s dedication to democracy started at the public library.
She spent 25 years serving the Columbia community at the Daniel Boone Regional Library before retiring in 2011.
Retirement gave her time to look for a new way to support the community, which led her into leadership with the League of Women Voters.
