The League of Women Voters of Wellesley's Meet the Candidates Night enables voters to learn about candidates for town-wide office and hear their positions on issues of importance to the town. The event will be live-streamed, broadcast live on Comcast 9/Verizon 39, and will be recorded for later broadcast and for on-demand viewing at https://www.wellesleymedia.org/live-streaming.html.

The League is a nonpartisan political organization which does not support or oppose candidates. In sponsoring an unbiased candidate event, the League’s goal is to help voters make informed choices as they cast their votes in the Annual Town Election on Tuesday, March 1, 2022. 

Are you curious about candidates’ positions? Voters are invited to submit questions for candidates by email: lwvwellesley2@gmail.com by 5 pm on February 9. Questions will be screened for lack of bias, relevance, and applicability to all candidates for each office. Similar questions may be consolidated. 

There will be no print version of the League’s Election Guide this year. The Guide will be posted by February 10 to the League’s Election Guide platform, vote411.org, where voters can also find personalized election information on how and where to vote. Information about The Meet the Candidates Night event, the Election Guide and other election-related material may be viewed on the League’s website, www.lwvwellesley.org.
