​
As a service to voters of Morris County, the League of Women Voters (League) of the Morristown Area, Warren and West Morris Counties, and Mountain Lakes worked as a team to organize and execute nonpartisan candidates debates and forums for the November elections. Beginning in mid-August 2021, the team of three Leagues made a significant and sustained effort to bring together candidates running for State Senate and Assembly, County Commissioners, local municipal offices, and local boards of education.
We are pleased to announce that our concerted effort paid off. The League triumvirate sponsored an unprecedented number of candidate forums this election season in Morris County, many of which were co-sponsored by organizations that share the League’s longstanding commitment to ensuring a nonpartisan arena for political engagement. All forums were live-streamed and are available for viewing on League YouTube channels.
