Capital Workspaces presents The HUB
Ralph Watkins, Vice President with League of Women Voters
What challenges do voters face today?
In this episode of The HUB, we spoke with Ralph Watkins, Vice President with League of Woman Voters of Maryland (LWVMD) about voting rights in America, from the founding of the republic to the present day. We examine the constitutional amendments, laws, court cases, and social movements that shaped the voting landscape, as well as the barriers and obstacles that voters still encounter. We also discuss the importance of voting and civic engagement, how we can protect and expand our democracy, and the current issues and debates around voter ID laws, voter registration, vote by mail, gerrymandering, and election security
Also, we want to encourage our listeners to please visit and donate to Vote411.org to learn how to successfully participate in every election. Whether it's local, state or federal, every election is important to ensuring our laws and policies reflect the values and beliefs of our communities.
