For this year’s National Voter Registration Day, we partnered with IGNITE, a non-partisan national organization dedicated to accelerating young women’s paths to political power. Faith Garcia, the representative from IGNITE, reserved space for us at the Lemon Grove Library. Although we were not successful in our attempt to register voters, we did encounter many enthusiastic voters, and spread the word about our respective organizations. Of the dozens of visitors to our table, all were ineligible at this time or already registered, which was likely a result of our recent election. But they did help themselves to dozens of Voter’s Edge bookmarks and decals from IGNITE. A big thank you to Carol Rohe who also represented the LWVSD. As you can see from the photo below, we followed COVID guidelines - it was great to finally have our first in-person voter registration event in more than 18 months.
