Voting is a “civic duty”. Our right to vote empowers us to make an impact in our communities. Yet voter turnout has long been a challenge. During the 2022 midterms, 43% of eligible city voters cast a ballot. At the recent Philly mayoral race, only 32% of eligible voters showed up at the polls.
Join WHYY and the Free Library of Philadelphia to discuss ways to motivate Philadelphians young and old to step into the voting booth and exercise their democratic rights this November.
