"Civics Isn’t a Dirty Word" Zoom event hosted by Stand Up 4 Lower Merion and Narberth. Stand Up 4 LMN - FYI believes that local elections are very important. They hope you agree and will attend our on Sunday, April 27, at 2 pm, to have your questions answered. Do you know what a commissioner or council member does? What about the school board? What do you know about the judiciary? Is a judge of elections part of that? What is the difference between wards and precincts? Did you know there were changes to some of the wards? Be an informed voter this May and November, and learn how local government works.

You can then decide which candidates for those offices are knowledgeable and worthy of your vote. Register, even if you can’t attend, to receive the recording.

Welcome! You are invited to join a meeting: Civics isn't a Dirty Word. After registering, you will receive a confirmation email about joining the meeting.
