2024 General Election - Tuesday November 5
Ballot Measures

We provide nonpartisan election information to help you be a more informed voter.

The LWV has two missions: 
  • Education—our nonpartisan information on the ballot proposals and their proponents and opponents, and
  • Advocacy—our positions on the ballot proposals.

We can support or oppose a proposal only if we have a position on its underlying issues. To reach a position, League members have studied the issue in depth and found areas of member consensus or agreement . LWV members reconsider these positions annually.  If we have no position that applies to a particular proposal, we take a "neutral" stance.
