WHYY Yay or Nay: Does Voting Matter?

Voting is a “civic duty.” Our right to vote empowers us to make an impact in our communities. Yet voter turnout has long been a challenge. During the 2022 midterms, 43% of eligible city voters cast a ballot. During the most recent Philadelphia mayoral race, only 32% of eligible voters showed up at the polls.

Join WHYY and the Free Library of Philadelphia to discuss ways to motivate Philadelphians to step into the voting booth and exercise their democratic rights this November.

Register for this free event here.
