Hello,

I hope this message finds you in good health and good spirits! I am writing to the candidates for Topeka's District 1 and the Mayor's Office to invite you to take part in Topeka JUMP's candidate forum, scheduled for July 10 from 6:30-8pm at Asbury Mount Olive UMC. Topeka JUMP is a coalition of 34 local congregations who come together to do justice. At our main event each year, the Nehemiah Assembly, we organize around 1000 people who come together and ask elected officials to take specific action on our community's most pressing problems. 

Our priority issues are violence reduction, affordable housing, and homelessness. We want our members to be informed about the candidates' positions on these issues as they prepare to vote in the primary elections. Please let us know if you are able to attend.

Blessings.
Jason Maymon
Associate Organizer

Dear Henry McClure,

VOTE411.org and the League of Women Voters of Kansas invite you to participate in our online Voter Guide. We have already included information on each candidate per the list available through the Kansas Secretary of State's office and your Local Election Office. Now, we hope you will customize (or correct) your entry in your own words and answer a few questions on current issues relevant to the office for which you are running.

Your page has options to include additional biographical information and a photo. Please respond to the attached questions directly on your page. Please answer the questions on your page; for your reference, I've included the questions at the end of this email. Your views will help voters evaluate your positions on critical current issues.

By participating in this activity sponsored by the League of Women Voters, a candidate agrees to the following:

  • I will not upload false or defamatory words tending to harm another's reputation, business, or means of livelihood.
  • I will not upload copyrighted or other legally protected material without the permission of the owner of such material.
  • I will not upload statements that include an incitement of violence, threats to any person or group of people, obscenities, or slurs.

If you violate these rules, you will be given the opportunity to update your response to comply with these rules. If you fail to comply, all or part of the statement will be redacted.

Will you edit my responses? No. All responses come directly from you and are unedited by the League. The League reserves the right to remove or redact portions of your responses that violate state or federal law or the voter guide rules noted above. If your responses violate the above-listed guidelines, LWVEF will contact your campaign and ask you to change your responses by a specific deadline. After that date, if your responses have not been updated to meet our guidelines, we will remove or redact only the information that violates the guidelines while keeping your other responses published and unedited.

You can directly access and update your information by accessing this web-based form: https://admin.thevoterguide.org/candidates/QVYS8WVV/responses

Please take a few minutes to update your information. If you do not have a primary, your data will not be visible to voters until after the August primary.

If you have a primary, your information is visible to you, and the voters can view your responses on VOTE411.org. Enter your address, then select "Get Your Personalized Ballot and Candidate Information." You can click through each of the relevant races, including yours.

Your responses and contact information will be available to voters worldwide 24/7 through an interactive, community-specific online Voters' Guide at www.VOTE411.org.

Languages: You are asked to respond to questions in English only. LWVEF reserves the right to translate your English language responses into other languages by professional translators and will send you those translations to edit if you desire. If you do not edit the responses, the translated content will appear for voters who choose that language as their preferred language.

If you have any questions or need assistance, contact vote411@lwvk.org. If you would like to opt out of receiving these communications for the upcoming election on August 5th, please email VOTE411help@lwv.org.

Thank you for your participation. Your responses will help voters better understand you and your platform. If you have any questions, please email the Vote 411 Administrator at vote411@lwvk.org

Sincerely,

Marlene Merrill, President

League of Women Voters of Kansas
