May Statewide Meeting: Influencing Boards of Elections

May Statewide Meeting: Influencing Boards of Elections

Join us on May 18th at 7PM for our May Statewide Meeting as we focus on one of the most important strategies for advancing Ranked Choice Voting in Ohio: building relationships with Boards of Elections.

While BOEs don’t set policy, their role in implementation and local influence makes their position critical. Campaign experience shows that when Boards of Elections are neutral or supportive, efforts to advance Ranked Choice Voting are far more likely to succeed.

In this virtual session, you’ll learn how to effectively engage BOE members, build credibility, and move toward neutrality or support in your community.

Featured Speakers

  • Kelly DuFour, Common Cause Ohio
    Practical lessons from building relationships with county Boards of Elections.
  • Anna Kellar, Rank the Vote
    Insights from Maine, where Ranked Choice Voting is already in use.
  • Chris Hughes and Ryan Kirby, The Ranked Choice Voting Resource Center
    An introduction to power-mapping tools you can use to identify key decision-makers and influencers in your county.

Whether you’re brand new to this work or have been involved for years, you’ll leave with concrete ways to help advance Ranked Choice Voting in Ohio.

Be part of the strategy that helps move Ranked Choice Voting forward in Ohio.
