Have you been wishing you knew more about what it will be like to vote this year? The League of Women Voters Austin Area and the National Council of Jewish Women of Austin are sponsoring a program about new voting processes during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Our featured speaker is Dana DeBeauvoir, Travis County Clerk. She will describe the new processes her office is developing, including how they plan to protect voters and poll workers at in-person polling locations.

Cinde Weatherby, LWV of Texas Issue Chair of Voting Rights and Elections, and Joyce LeBombard, LWV Austin Area Past President, will discuss the broader perspectives of voting in Texas and how the League has been working to support voters’ rights, including their work on the lawsuit over ballots by mail.

Please register for this online event by June 22, 2020. You will then receive a link to the Zoom meeting and details for submitting your questions before the program.
