Welcome to the LWV
of Saginaw County

The League of Women Voters, a nonpartisan political organization, has fought since 1920 to improve our systems of government and impact public policies through citizen education and advocacy. The League's enduring vitality and resonance comes from its unique decentralized structure.

The League of Women Voters is strictly nonpartisan; it neither supports nor opposes candidates for office at any level of government. At the same time, the League is wholeheartedly political and works to influence policy through advocacy. It is the original grassroots citizen network, directed by the consensus of its members nationwide.

High School Voter Registration Project Enfranchises Thousands

Leagues in five states worked this spring to help thousands of students in high-minority high schools register to vote and learn about the importance of civic participation. The Leagues, in conjunction with the League's Education Fund and our research partner, Project Vote, will continue their efforts when school starts again this fall. The results of their work will help inform groundbreaking research and materials to support Leagues' youth engagement work for years to come.
