Have a Portager subscription? Share it with LWV Kent to power our voter education efforts and support Yes on Issue 1

You can donate your free Portager online ad to Kent LWV to help us stretch our voter education promotion dollars all the way to November! We're also asking for Portager ad space donations to promote "Yes on Issue 1." Email us here. In addition, we are asking those donating their ad space for the issue campaign to sign the affadavit declaring citizenship (thanks to the state legislature). We will let editor Ben Wolford know who is donating, and we will let you know when we use your space. Thanks so much. It saves the Kent League hundreds of dollars and helps us stay visible as a voter resource.
