Funding for County District 4 Special Election
Published on 5/22/2023
LWV applauds the decision to allow voters to elect their Supervisor in a special election. We are concerned about low voter turnout, typical in special elections, particularly among historically disenfranchised communities and other eligible voters who are disengaged from the electoral process. We urge the Board to take steps to ensure robust voter participation by fully funding a comprehensive nonpartisan voter outreach, education and communications effort to ensure maximum voter participation.
