What Do League Members Do?
The LWVNCSD strives to keep the residents of North County informed about local elections and policy issues that affect our community. We monitor local jurisdictions to promote
good governance and
transparency and we offer events throughout the year to
educate members and the public about important issues facing the community.
Our League members
- observe our local governments and may recommend action based on League principles and positions;
- study issues to enable members to reach consensus and create an informed position on which to take action;
- educate ourselves and the public, particularly before an election;
- register voters and provide nonpartisan information on election-related matters.
Members generally meet monthly in committees focused on a particular issue, activity or geographic area. Members can attend unit meetings, which are devoted to particular areas, such as the
- San Dieguito Unit, covering Del Mar, Solana Beach, Encinitas and Rancho Santa Fe.
- Carlsbad Unit, focused on the City of Carlsbad
- Oceanside Unit, which is currently inactive
Issue-related committees include Climate Change, Water Policy, Housing & Homelessness, and Criminal Justice. A Voter Service committee, Candidate Forum committee and Pros and Cons Committee provide education, resources and outreach for all things related to elections and voting.
