Saturday, May 2: The most local election

"All politics is local," according to a maxim coined by Tip O'Neill, the 47th Speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives (1977–1987), emphasizing that voters care most about how political decisions directly affect their daily lives. 

And the most local political questions in Montgomery County will be answered Saturday, May 2, in what's called a "Uniform Election." What voters will find on their ballots are school board races, MUD board seats, city and town council openings and mayoral races, among others.

Because these races don't get much publicity, elections like these suffer low voter turnout. That's why the League of Women Voters of Montgomery County works hard to let voters know about the most local of local elections!

REMINDER: During the Early Voting period — take a look at the calendar at right; early voting dates are marked in blue — you can vote at any polling location in Montgomery County. But on Election Day, May 2, you can vote only at your assigned precinct polling place.

And we've put a link below for the Montgomery County Elections Office, to find your assigned polling place.
