Voting is one of the essential ways citizens express their opinions and impact their local, state and national politics. Though there are many lessons to be learned from the history of the 70 year battle for women’s right to vote – one obvious lesson is that the right to vote should not taken for granted and we should VOTE!
If you need information about voting in Illinois, please visit the Illinois State Board of Election’s website which is the main source – www.elections.il.gov
If you would like to know more about all the issues and candidates on your state ballot, one great source for information is the Illinois League of Women Voters website – www.lwvil.org/
