The Easy Voter Guide Project is offering free nonpartisan guides for organizations that want to help new and busy voters understand the eight statewide propositions in the Nov. 8 special election.
Orders can be placed online or by downloading an order form at www.easyvot-er.org. The guide will be available in English, Spanish, Chinese, Vietnamese and Korean. The minimum order is 250 booklets. The guide and other helpful information for voters in multiple languages will be available at www.easyvoter.org.
The Easy Voter Guide uses community reviewers to create its language and layout. Then expert reviewers from the Legislative Analyst’s Office and Secretary of State’s Office provide assurance of accuracy. The guide is distributed by libraries, the League of Women Voters, elections offices, schools, community colleges and a wide variety of community-based organizations engaged in voter education.
The Easy Voter Guide Project is a collaboration of the California State Library, the California Secretary of State’s Office and the League of Women Voters of California Education Fund, with additional support from The James Irvine Foundation. The Easy Voter Guide has been produced for each statewide election since 1994.
