Why should you vote in the upcoming local election?
- Vote for leaders who share your values
- Your vote keeps your local officials accountable because you push towards change that is transferable on a federal level
- Support access to quality health care in your community
- Voting shows you care about your community because you are doing what you can to create positive change
- Protect local parks
- Ensure good schools for your children
- Have a say in how your tax dollars are spent in your town
- Ensure adequate funding for local colleges so that tuition is affordable
- According to the Will County 2019 Consolidated Election, voter turnout was a disappointing 13.16%
- Lower voter turnout in local elections actually means YOUR vote has an even GREATER IMPACT!
