The League of Women Voters of Snohomish County is launching a candidate forum series starting September 30, 2024, to engage local voters in the electoral process. This initiative, a collaboration with the 2024 Forum Partnership Coalition, includes notable organizations such as the American Association of University Women (AAUW) and the Edmonds School District. The forums will provide a platform for candidates from various local races to present their views and policies, allowing voters to ask questions and gain insights into their electoral choices. This series is a crucial step towards enhancing civic engagement and ensuring that community members are well-informed ahead of the fall elections. By facilitating open discussions, the League aims to foster transparency and accountability among candidates.

The forums will take place in accessible venues to encourage widespread participation from the public. This initiative highlights the significance of voter education and participation in the democratic process, especially in local elections. As the election date approaches, the League of Women Voters hopes to empower the community to make informed decisions that reflect their values and priorities.
