Proposed LWVCC Local Positions for 2026-2027: 
​Final Member Action Needed

All LWVCC members have the opportunity to provide input on our local League positions through the consensus process. Doing so ensures we remain a grassroots organization and allows our President to speak for the League on current issues and concerns of the community. Adopting Local Positions, and noting their relationship to LWVIL and LWVUS positions, increases our impact by presenting one voice representing all our members.

Proposed changes to the LWVCC Local Positions were reviewed at an all-member consensus meeting in March. Based on member input, revisions were made. The revised Local Positions were approved by the Board. They will be presented to the membership for adoption at the LWVCC Annual Meeting on May 21, 2026. All members are encouraged to review the Local Positions 2026-2027 for Adoption at Annual Meeting in advance.

Elections 2026 Update

According to data posted on the Champaign County Clerk's Historical Election Data webpage, about 24% of registered voters in Champaign County cast ballots in the 
March 17 Primary Election.  Illinois Public Media covered this story both on the radio and online, including reasons for the low voter turnout. 
The coverage also featured examples from Voter Ready volunteer Ann Prisland of how the League encourages voter registration and voting among high school and college students. 

​
What's Next? Voter Ready is starting to plan for the Nov 3 General Election. We’d value your ideas!

​Are you a member of or know about an organization that might value a nonpartisan presentation on voting?
  • Do you know about other nonpartisan community organizations that might be interested in collaborating with the League to amplify voting and election information even more widely?
  • What ideas do you have for voter information or registration opportunities as we move toward the Nov. 3 general election?
 Let us know and we’ll follow up!  Email us at [email protected]​

Thank You
​Student Ambassadors! 

Fifteen Champaign County high school students have wrapped up their year as LWVCC Student Ambassadors. They worked tirelessly to educate their peers about the importance of voting by hosting six voter registration events and registering 156 students. Hats off to our students and especially those who are graduating.

If you know high school students interested in becoming Student Ambassadors for the 2026-2027 school year, please encourage them to apply. It's a great way to learn, build their resume and make a difference!
