Connections: Why Do We Not Vote?

As we head towards a general election in November, we ask the question, why do people not vote? The general election usually has a low turnout, it’s even lower for the primaries, which were held just a few weeks ago. The League of Women Voters will try to answer that question tonight with a panel discussion. We’ll get a preview of this discussion with Katherine Smith from the League of Women Voters, and talk with Tom Proietti, resident scholar in media at St. John Fisher College.
