2023 General Election Voters Guide

We’ve made the League of Women Voters of Athens County‘s nonpartisan voters guide interactive, with clickable links in the document (including candidate emails) as well as links to the Independent’s coverage where available. We’ve also added video of LWV-sponsored candidate forums so you can view the event right here. (Note: Some videos can be viewed only on the league’s Facebook page.)

Like the League of Women Voters, the Athens County Independent is a nonpartisan organization that does not support or oppose any political party or candidate. The Independent aims to help you make informed choices when you vote.
