Mission
THE LEAGUE OF WOMEN VOTERS OF SANTA FE COUNTY (LWVSFC) IS A NON-PROFIT ORGANIZATION THAT SEEKS TO PROMOTE INFORMED CITIZEN PARTICIPATION IN GOVERNMENT BY PROVIDING UNBIASED INFORMATION ABOUT POLITICAL ISSUES AND CANDIDATES. THE LWVSFC FOCUSES ON ISSUES THAT AFFECT SANTA FE COUNTY RESIDENTS AND ARE WITHIN THE SCOPE OF ELECTED AND APPOINTED OFFICIALS IN SANTA FE COUNTY. THE LWVSFC DOES NOT SUPPORT OR OPPOSE ANY POLITICAL PARTY OR CANDIDATE. RATHER, WE ARE FOCUSED ON PROVIDING INFORMATION THAT WILL ALLOW SANTA FE COUNTY RESIDENTS TO FORM THEIR OWN OPINIONS BASED ON FACTUAL INFORMATION. THE LWVSFC DOES ADOPT POSITIONS ON LOCAL ISSUES FOLLOWING A PROCESS OF STUDY AND CONSENSUS OR CONCURRENCE, AFTER WHICH WE ADVOCATE PUBLICLY BASED ON THOSE POSITIONS.
