Vote411.org Voters’ Guide for Municipal Primary Election on Feb. 11
League of Women Voters of Metropolitan Tulsa has created an online Voters’ Guide for the Feb. 11 Municipal Primary Election
Tulsa County – The League of Women Voters of Metropolitan Tulsa has assembled an online Voters’ Guide about the candidates running in the Feb. 11 Municipal Primary Election for the City of Collinsville May and the City of Sand Springs Councilmember Ward 3.
The online Voters’ Guide allows voters to see which candidates will be on their ballot and compare the candidates running for each office. An online version of the Voters’ Guide is currently available at http://www.vote411.org/.
In compiling the Voters’ Guide, the League invited all candidates who have filed for vacant positions and face a challenger in the primary election. The League does not edit or change any responses from candidates, including spelling and grammar. The Voters’ Guide is voluntary so candidates can choose whether they wish to participate.
“The League of Women Voters encourages all voters to exercise their right to vote. Voting affects our lives in so many ways, large and small,” said Lynn Staggs, president, League of Women Voters of Metropolitan Tulsa. “Your vote is your voice.”
Important dates to note

- Early voting: Thurs., Feb. 6, 8 a.m. – 6 p.m.; Fri., Feb. 7, 8 a.m. – 6 p.m. at the Tulsa County Election Board
The League’s mission is to “encourage informed and active participation in government works, to increase understanding of major public policy issues, and influence public policy through education and advocacy.” The League strives to provide useful non-partisan tools for the voters to use to learn about the candidates running for office.
