 A group that is approaching their 100th anniversary of being formed after the passing of the 19th amendment met this week in Brainerd. The League of Women Voters meeting focused on election security and how it affects the voting process. The League of Women Voters is a non-partisan group that has the mission of envisioning a democracy where every person has the desire, the right, and the knowledge as well as the confidence to participate. The group focuses on vital democratic issues of concern to group members and to the public. We're a non-partisan league. We're dedicated to educating voters on different topics. We put together all of the candidate forums in conjunction with others. The event focused on our election system and the issue of election security that many are concerned about today. An official from Crowan County spoke about voter turnout over the years in Crowan County and issues that affect voters in our community. One of the biggest threats to our elections environment is misinformation and one of the things that I've always felt is it's important to get out and make sure that people know that there is security around our elections process and the only way that they can know that is if we provide that information to them. So by having that opportunity to meet with groups like the League of Women Voters we can get the right information out to the public. The League of Women Voters will be holding a congressional election forum as well as a forum for the race for Crowan County Sheriff in the coming months.
