LWV Presents: Inside the Ballot Box
Have you ever wondered how your vote is protected once you cast it? The League of Women Voters Northern Portage County (LWV NPC), in collaboration with Hiram College, is here to answer those questions and more.
Whether you've voted on Election Day, early in person, or have concerns about the security of paper ballots and voting machines, you're not alone. Many voters share concerns about the integrity of the voting process and the security measures in place to ensure every vote is accurately counted.
To address these concerns, LWV NPC is hosting a special event: Democracy Dialogues: Inside the Ballot Box. This event will feature a casual conversation with Theresa Nielsen, Deputy Director of the Portage County Board of Elections (BOE), who will provide insights into what happens before, during, and after Election Day.
Event Details:
- Date: Wednesday, September 4, 2024
- Time: 6:30 PM
- Location: Warren Sherman Hayden Memorial Auditorium, 11715 OH-700, Hiram, OH 44234
During this informative session, you'll learn about the following topics and more:
● The security protocols in place when you scan your ballot on Election Day.
