Smart Voter
is providing online support to twelve communities in Los
Angeles County for their local elections on April 11. A
press release was sent to the Los Angeles Times and to the
smaller dailies and weeklies in the cities having the elections.
The Los Angeles County communities holding elections are
Arcadia, Avalon, Bradbury, Culver City, Lancaster,
Lawndale, Long Beach, Malibu, Santa Clarita, Sierra Madre,
Walnut, and Whittier. School board members, community college
trustees and city officials are on the ballot in Long Beach
and Avalon. Malibu is proposing a tax on space in parking
facilities, and Culver City voters face a land use proposal
that restricts public theaters to within 400 feet of a school.
Talk about controversy.
Smart Voter, using the expertise, energy, and personal contacts
that local League members already have, brings really meaningful
online voter service to areas that need it most -- the smaller
communities. Voters in these cities can obtain information
about their elections on http://www.smartvoter.org and it's
there for them 24 hours a day. No advertisements, no pitches
or gimmicks of any kind -- just the pertinent information
they need. |
