The September Channel Voter is Online

To find out everything that's happening in the League, read the latest news on our website. Included is a 2-page flyer about the ballot propositions the State League supports, as well as the upcoming fall events. 
September Community Forum Ballot Measures:
What the League Recommends - and Why
Wednesday, Sept. 21, 2016 noon to 2 p.m.
Louise Lowry Davis Center, 1232 De La Vina St.
 
The League of Women Voters never supports or opposes candidates or political parties. But the League often makes recommendations on ballot measures.

At our September Community Forum, we will explain LWV's recommendations on 11 of the 17 state propositions, and on several of the 7 local (county, city, or school district) measures that will be on South Coast ballots this fall. League members and speakers from other organizations that are working with us will present information on the ballot measures.

Some of the propositions are very confusing - in one case, intentionally so. And this will be an incredibly long ballot. So come learn more about it! You may want to read the flyer in the Channel Voter first. 
 
Remember, this is an advocacy forum. The LWVSB Education Fund will also host an impartial Voter Service forum on the Pros and Cons on Sunday, Oct. 9 at 2:30 p.m. at the Faulkner Gallery of the Main Santa Barbara Public Library.

The Community Forum, as always, is free and open to the public. You are encouraged to invite your friends. Bring your brown bag lunch; beverages will be provided. Parking behind the center is free during the meeting.
