The League of Women Voters of Seattle regularly holds trainings for members that would like to help out registering citizens to vote at various events around the area this summer and fall. These informational sessions are a wonderful resource, whether you're a seasoned registrar just looking to hone your skills and learn about recent changes in election rules and procedures, or a brand-new volunteer!

Sessions last about an hour. Bring your friends! Please RSVP to the League office if you would like to participate: 206-329-4848 or lindsay@seattlelwv.org Trainings will be scheduled throughout the summer.

Both the April forum (National Popular Vote Compact) and May forum (The Current State of Health Care and Health Care Reform: A National and Local Perspective) are on the King County TV schedule (and in their archives). Go to www.kingcounty.gov/kctv.aspx and click on "TV Schedule" to find broadcast times.

Past LWV forums are also archived at TVW. Go to their website at www.tvw.org/index.
