The Voter

Ten times each year, the League of Women Voters of Metropolitan Columbus publishes its newsletter, The Voter – a useful publication for members and nonmembers alike. In an effort to be environmentally and financially responsible, the League will make hard-copy versions of the newsletter available to members only upon request.

Browse our archive; the most recent issue appears at the top. Also, be sure to check out the League of Women Voters of Ohio's Voter newsletter.
