When it comes to absentee and mail-in voting, what is the notice & cure process? | League of Women Voters
Notice and cure processes are the most effective mitigation factor against voter suppression relating to mail-in ballots.
Democracy is Worth Waiting For | League of Women Voters
This year, we are going to have to wait for democracy to run its course. We need to allow time for every vote to be counted accurately and completely.
The campaign is over and now the Election Code takes over. If ballots are postmarked on Election Day the County has 17-days to receive and count the ballots. We must count every legal vote no matter who the vote goes to. Every vote will be securely counted according to the Election Code. Election officials have 30 days to certify the election or return results to the CA Secretary of State.
Don't miss the voting wave. There is still time. You can register and vote at the Oakland Coliseum and get your flu shot at the same time! Find other Vote Center on our website. https://www.lwvoakland.org

Equal Rights Under the Law, What’s Wrong with That? | League of Women Voters
It's important to understand why the ERA is necessary and look to states that have already passed such amendments in their own constitutions for guidance on this important subject.
Vote because you can. Vote for your children and family. Vote for what you know and care about.

Great work by the Oakland League. Congratulation on their local Easy Voter Guide #VoteOakland #vote2020
The League works hard to make great voter information available to everyone. It partners with wonderful organizations like Meals on Wheels to deliver it to seniors' homes. It was a happy coincidence when Oakland League Board Member, Nina Senn, joined her husband, Bill, yesterday to deliver meals and discovered that they were going to be delivering the League's Easy Voter Guide too. The seniors were so pleased to receive it and were excited about voting this year.
Online copies of the Easy Voter Guide can be found in multiple languages on the League's website: https://my.lwv.org/california/oakland/whats-my-ballot
