LACF working to educate citizens about 2024 elections
The 2024 elections will be coming up rapidly, and the Liberal Area Coalition for Families (LACF) is working hard to spread the word about everything that will be going on. “To start, we’ve established voter pages on Facebook not just for Seward County but also for Haskell County and Stevens County. We’ve been sharing a lot of information on those pages, and we’ll continue to do that by reminding people to get registered but we’ll really start pushing more information after voter registration ends,” LACF Board President Kay Burtzloff said. “We’ve had a booth at the Farmer’s Market every week where we’ve been able to register voters, which has gone really well. We also push the ksvotes.org Web site because if someone is registered by paper by this year’s deadline, it has to be in by 5 p.m., but if registration is done online, it’s taken until midnight, which is handy. We also work really well with Stacia Long and the Seward County Clerk’s office, and I know she also very highly endorses the ksvotes.org Web site because everything comes in to them all ready to go without having to translate handwriting and all of that. I’ve also been reaching out to the local nursing homes, and I recently visited those facilities with vote by mail ballot applications, because we’ve actually had some feedback about those residents being a bit concerned. And we talk with those residents not just about the vote by mail, but we also remind them to be sure and have their voter registration updated and have some forms for that, and we do that so those residents know there is someone in town willing to help them with that.”
