Repost @palisadeslapl High school and college students! Join the Palisades Library’s Teen Council on Thursday, October 8th at 3:30PM (pdt) for the virtual event: Voting as a Young Person! Learn more about why it’s important to exercise your civic duty and vote in every election. This teen-led presentation will also share the logistical where’s and how-to’s of voting in LA County in the upcoming November election.... Did you know? *In California, teenagers 16 to 17 years old can pre-register to vote so they will automatically be registered as soon as they turn 18? *According to the US Census Bureau, in the 2016 presidential election only 46% of eligible voters ages 18 to 29 years old cast a ballot? *Voting is more than the Presidential election--the outcomes of state and local ballot initiatives will have a great impact on our communities and lives! Hear from Palisades and greater LA based TEENS, who are working together to inform their peers on issues that matter to them. (High school students may get community service credit for attending this session and by completing a form.) DM or email [email protected] for more information or the Zoom link. *This program is intended only to provide information on voters’ rights and to encourage civic engagement. It is not meant to provide political opinion or advice. #lapubliclibrary #vote #election
