• I’ll walk us through the materials and information provided by the League and help keep us focused during discussion. Here a few things to consider prior and during the meeting:

• If you can, please review this study guide and consider your position BEFORE coming to the meeting on Sunday: https://lwvma.org/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/LWVMA-BQS-Study-Guide-with-CQs-7Dec18.pdf I estimate this may take an hour of your time, but will help in keeping us on schedule at the meeting. If you are interested, here is a pdf of the slideshow we will use: https://www.dropbox.com/s/srk5z606lluugmn/2-BQS%20slides%20for%20Consensus%20Mtgs%20final.pdf?dl=0

• If you have more time and/or are curious about more info you can find more resources at the bottom of this page: https://lwvma.org/the-lwvma-study-on-the-massachusetts-ballot-question-process/

• Marie is bringing some snacks—yay!

• Approx. 5 printed copies of the Study Guide will be available at the meeting. If you feel that you need a hard copy of the study guide, please print yourself or reach out to me or Marie for assistance. (The slideshow will be projected, but does not contain all the details of the study guide.)

• If you have your Red Voter Guides from the last election, please bring them along. We’ll try to have a copy printed and have a digital version to project for the group.

• Let’s all plan to keep our comments concise so that anyone who cares to voice opinion has the opportunity to do so and we stay on schedule.
