Fireside Chat with the 40th Ward Dems

Join the 40th Ward Dems on Thursday, February 26, at Mather High School for our first Fireside Chat -- a moderated panel discussion on primary elections, featuring:

• Alexi Giannoulias, IL Secretary of State
• Stevie Valles, CEO of Chicago Votes
• Colleen K. Connell, Exec. Director of ACLU Illinois
• Max Bever, Chicago Board of Elections
• Moderated by Rachel Hinton of Block Club Chicago

Our panelists will examine the impact low primary turnout has on policy outcomes, representation, and political power. The conversation will also address common barriers to participation, including confusion about voting opportunities and lack of accessible information. By grounding the discussion in real community impact, the Fireside Chat will encourage informed participation by Chicago neighbors ahead of the March 17 Midterm Primary Election.
