High School Voter Registration Opportunity in February and March

Probably the most prevalent reason that people join the League of Women Voters is to encourage people to vote. When we ask for volunteers, "Register People to Vote" is the most popular request.

We have a need now for volunteers to register students in our high schools. We ask for a commitment of approximately three hours around the 10:30 a.m. - 1:30 p.m. lunch hours. We will provide training, and in most cases you will be working with another League member.

If you are interested, please look at the attached schedule and call or email the office 410-377-8046; lwvbaltimore@comcast.net and let Wilma Rosenberger, our office manager, know your preferred date(s). We will be back in touch with you right away.

Our voter registration dates run from February 21 to March 9. Students who meet the age requirement of turning 18 by the November General Election will be able to vote in the April 3 Primary Election! Please join us in providing this valuable service for our young people.
