For those who mark “yes” as their answer, in the next few weeks we will be offering several workshops at DT sites that will explore the candidates – local and national – and where they stand on those issues most important to you. We will also offer non-partisan assistance with the ballot for those choosing mail ballots. Or, if you choose to vote in person, we will be arranging day trips to early voting sites.
For all of those reasons, It’s very important that these get back to Jennifer at KNS ASAP! Thanks!
