DID YOU KNOW?
Are you interested in being a LWVCNM delegate to the LWV National Convention?
The LWV National Convention is in Columbus, Ohio from June 25 - 28. LWVCNM has 4 delegate slots. You can attend all of the sessions, business meetings, and work groups in person or you could virtually attend the business meetings. LWVCNM will pay for your registration, however you would pay for all other expenses. Convention is a great way to learn and be more involved in the League. Please mail president@lwvcnm.org if you are interested in being a delegate.
The League supports Ranked Choice Voting, RCV, as a way to expand voter choice, promote majority-supported outcomes, and strengthen confidence in our elections. Councilors Fiebelkorn, Telles, and Rogers are supporting RCV. At the Albuquerque City Council meeting on April 6th there will be a final vote. Please take action in support by contacting your City Councilor. Fair Vote has created a simple tool that makes it easy to contact your City Councilor here.
