Feeling overwhelmed by the flood of campaign flyers, yard signs, social media posts, and political messages? How do we find impartial and reliable information that enables us to make sense of it all? Join us for Beyond Campaign Ads and Yard Signs: Your Guide to an Informed Ballot, an interactive workshop designed to help you confidently navigate your ballot using trusted, nonpartisan resources. Together, we’ll explore Washington and Sullivan County candidates and learn how to find reliable information, research candidates, understand campaign contributions and records, and create your own candidate scorecard for local and state races. We’ll also reflect together on what this research process reveals and how informed voters can strengthen our communities. Whether you’re a longtime voter or preparing to vote for the first time, you’ll leave with practical skills, reliable resources, and greater confidence to make informed choices at the ballot box.
