LWVWA Multi-Member Districts Education Presentation

Published on 10/12/2024
Some of you may remember at an annual Program of Work planning meeting when Kit Muehlman asked for member support of an education project to be presented for member approval at the State Convention in May 2023.
We did receive member approval for the education project at convention, and with the help of Chris Mason from Mason County, Cindy Black from Snohomish County, Kirsten Rooks from King County, we have developed a slide presentation. 

Description:
The system used for electing our representatives is seldom questioned in the United States. Recently, in the face of voter apathy and increased expressions of antipathy towards government, have some Americans begun to consider that there may be a relationship between the method used to select their representatives and peoples’ numerous complaints about the government it produces? This presentation will outline what multi-member districts are, where and how they are used, as well as how they could improve representation. Multi-Member Districts Education Project - A Civics Education Project of the WA League of Women Voters

Join us on Saturday November 9 at 10:00 am for a zoom presentation with Q&A:

The presentation will be recorded and soon we will have a webpage with resources and FAQ’s.
