Election 2024!

Would you like to learn more about how elections work?  Maybe this is the first election you can vote in, and you've got questions.

• Why do we have this two-party system?  Does it have to be this way?
• What's the history of voting: who got to vote, and who didn't? 
• Some of my friends say they don't vote at all; should I even bother with this?
• Is there a difference between senators and representatives...or are they maybe the same thing?
• How do I register to vote?  (Answer: click here!!)
• What does 'gerrymandering' EVEN MEAN??

Come into the library and take a look at our new book display about elections -- we've got lots of information for you.  Many of our best books about the election process are actually ebooks, so we've put together an online collection too.  We're not going to tell you who to vote for or what party to support, but we sure encourage you to find out as much as you can and vote according to what you think best.
