N.B.  Several Leagues have membership in more than one C.D. & appear on 2 or 3 lists.

(League) = a minimal part of that League’s membership lives within that C.D.

underlined League = all of that League’s membership lives within that C.D.

 

The above list reflects the new, redistricted configuration for your use in planning Congressional Candidate Debates/Forums. Refer to the attached “Towns As Districted For Election Purposes” list and to district maps (sent in a previous Board Report and found online via our Web site: lwvct.org) to locate your new state election districts.

 

Then, communicate with the other Leagues that share districts with you to co-sponsor debates/forums at all three levels. (Start with names & phone numbers in your League Directory: expect some changes in personnel to have occurred.)

 

Use LWVCT Candidate Criteria to determine which candidates should be included in a shared event. Line up a moderator trusted to appear and be nonpartisan! Keep the state office informed of your plans-in-progress, especially event dates.
