A Thank You to the League of Women Voters

The League of Women Voters has done the work that is vital to our democracy in helping community members to get to know their candidates and hear them discuss their positions on local issues, receiving praise from the StarTribune.

LWV organized high quality non-partisan candidate forums in all contested city council elections in Minneapolis. All 14 forums were held in front of a live audience, live-streamed and recorded for future viewing and seen by over 10,000 people. Community Power partnered with LWV Minneapolis to provide local energy & climate related questions and to help spread the word of the forums.

 

2023 Election Winners announced + their forum answers and questionnaire responses compiled 

For a user-friendly guide on how the incoming and returning members of the Minneapolis City Council responded in the live forums and written questionnaires, visit our updated page by clicking this link.
