 Voters' Guides

The League publishes a non-partisan Voters’ Guide before the Primary and General Elections to help voters learn about the candidates and issues on the ballot. The Guide is available electronically and in print.


VOTE411 is an interactive website accessed from a website on a computer, smartphone or tablet.

  • Enter your address and VOTE411 displays all of the offices and candidates that will be on your ballot.
  • You can learn about the candidates on your ballot and what they have to say on the issues in response to League questions. Answers are in English and Spanish (where provided), and appear exactly as candidates submit them.
  • VOTE411 also includes information about the dates of the early voting period and where to vote, based on your address.
  • For the General Election, VOTE411 includes explanations and the pros and cons of state and county ballot questions.
  • You can also register to vote via VOTE411 and find other useful election information.
  • VOTE411 will have candidate and ballot question information available approximately six weeks before the election.

Other Voting Support

Candidate Forums:  To help voters evaluate candidates, the League conducts live forums in which the candidates respond to questions and can comment on the responses of other candidates.  Voters may submit questions for use during the event and may attend the forums in person.  Check the League homepage to see when forums are scheduled.

Voter Hotline: If you have questions about voting in Montgomery County, we staff a telephone Voter Hotline during the month before and through the Primary Election Day and again for the month before through the General Election Day. An experienced League member is available to answer your questions from 10am to 4pm Monday thru Friday.  More information will be posted on the League homepage as the election approaches.
