Dear League Member-
We need to step up our efforts to protect our Democracy. What can you do for the 2027 elections? We are reaching out this year in a new way to get ideas for creating questions to ask local candidates running for office during the 2027 Spring Election for the League’s online voter guide, VOTE411. We invite everyone to provide feedback about important issues in your community. Please complete this survey .
In the survey, we also ask you to identify your voting district information. As a member of the League of Women Voters, we contact our elected officials about current issues and current legislation. As you complete the survey, please answer the optional questions about your voting districts, which we find on www.myvote.wi.gov.
In addition to completing the survey, please consider volunteering for the VOTE411 team. There are different ways of engaging depending on your skills and interest. We need:
-
Community volunteers to gather candidate information for our 2027 Spring Voter Guide from your municipal clerk and/or school district, primarily between mid-November and the end of the candidate filing period in early January.
-
Marketing professionals to research and arrange for advertising VOTE411 to increase its use in the community.
-
Outreach volunteers to contact candidates who haven’t completed the voter guide questions. These volunteers find League members to contact the candidates in their voting district who haven’t responded to the invitation for the voter guide.
-
League members with strong critical thinking skills to join the Questions Subcommittee to create the questions posed to the candidates.
We are always welcoming new people to help with Vote411 and we invite your questions. Please contact Mary Voelker or Beth Lueck by email (voterguideteam@lwvmilwaukee.org) to answer your questions or arrange an in-person or Zoom meeting to talk further about opportunities to help create our LWVMC Vote411 online Voter Guide for the 2027 elections.
Sincerely,
Peg Schrader
President, League of Women Voters of Milwaukee County
