The League of Women Voters of Northern Portage County welcomes all community members to the Meet the Candidates Night 2021.​ This year’s events will follow a face2face candidate forum format. Community members will be seated at tables while candidates will be rotated every 5 minutes to present their message and answer voter questions. This will allow for all candidates present to participate while also maintaining safe COVID protocols.

We envision a democracy where every person has
the desire, the right, the knowledge, and the
confidence to participate.
We believe in the power of women to create a
more perfect democracy.
​
The League is proud to be nonpartisan, neither
supporting nor opposing candidates or political
parties at any level of democracy, but always
working on vital issues of concern to members and
the public.

LWV Northern Portage County
As a subset of the National League and the Ohio League, the Northern Portage County League of Women Voters advocates within the communities of Aurora, Freedom, Garrettsville, Hiram, Mantua, Nelson and Shalersville.

​Each local League develops and comes to a consensus on positions within its community with which it takes action. The action taken may be in several forms, including letter writing, testifying at pubic hearings, serving on committees and/or commissions, and lobbying at local, state, or national levels for legislation. 

We are all equal at the ballot box,
​but only if we vote. 

From voter registration drives and local "Meet the Candidates" Nights, to printed Voter Guides and the LWV Vote 411 website, we believe that one of our most important functions is to encourage and help educate citizens to vote in fair elections. 

We've compiled valuable information for everyone - whether first-time voters or those who never miss a vote.
