[Lwvcnmtopics] Want to attend the LWVCNM Board Meeting tomorrow?

[kwentworth17 at comcast.net]

Hello-

 

The League has had to curtail many of our normal activities this year
because of the Covid-19 pandemic, but we want everyone to know that we are
still in business and beginning to look toward next year. If you feel like
you would like to know more about what is happening and what is planned,
please feel free to join the board meeting at 5:30 p.m. on Thursday, Dec. 3.
We have attached an agenda.

 

This is the usual kind of board meeting, but you will have a chance to learn
more about an upcoming activity, Program Planning that will be of interest
to everyone. Program Planning is a special meeting we will hold early next
year. This is the meeting at which we discuss projects for the coming year
and learn more about what members are interested in actually working on.

 

LWVCNM is a member of APD Forward, the coalition of community groups
monitoring the behavior of the Albuquerque Police Department. This is a
major area of interest and we need volunteers to work with Karen Douglas
<mailto:ug90t16 at unmalumni.com>  as the coalition works to change the way the
police interact with local residents. Please contact her if you are
interested.

 

We know you've barely recovered from the last election, but in 2021
communities throughout our coverage area of Bernalillo, Sandoval, Torrance
and Valencia will hold their municipal elections. It doesn't have the
excitement of a presidential election, but it's a wonderful chance to talk
with local officials and learn the issues as we put together our voter
guide. In 2021 we will do an online guide for many communities, and a
printed guide for the largest cities. Karen Wentworth
<mailto:kwentworth17 at comcast.net>  is looking for a small group of people to
mentor through the process of putting together Voter Guides. Please let her
know if you are interested.

 

This could be especially interesting to people who are new to the state.
Where else will you find out how to reach to mayor who runs his whole town
from the cell phone in his back pocket? Or learn ways to find candidates in
a community where all the candidates running for mayor gave the NM Secretary
of State incorrect addresses and phone numbers? Voter Guide workers learn to
be amateur detectives in the fight for democracy. It is a challenging way to
learn how politics work at the grass roots level in New Mexico.

 

Here's the invitation to the Zoom meeting.
