Due to the novel coronavirus pandemic, the LWV could not hold its typical well-attended forums in person. Forums this year were conducted via Zoom. This new format allows every voter the chance to view and learn from the forums, by clicking on the links mentioned above.

The LWV urges every voter to study the Voter’s Guide, published by the LWV in the Los Alamos Daily Post and online, and to vote safely, given the pandemic. In Los Alamos County early voting has begun at the Municipal Building. Absentee ballots have also been mailed out.
