Empowering Voters. Defending Democracy.
The League of Women Voters of Glenview-Glencoe is a nonpartisan political organization that encourages
informed and active participation in government, works to increase understanding of major public policy issues,
and seeks to influence public policy through education and advocacy. The League is nonpartisan in that it never
supports or opposes candidates or political parties, and political in that it takes action on governmental issues
for which positions have been adopted through member study and agreement..
In 2026, we'll vote in two elections: the General Primary Election (March 17) and the General Election (November 3). To help educate voters, the League of Women Voters Education Fund has created VOTE411, an unbiased online guide to elections covering federal, state, and local races in Illinois. VOTE411 will go live on February 17!

Meeting of the Minds Discussion Group
WHEN: February 26 @ 1:00 to 2:30 PM
WHERE: Bean Bar, 1901 Cherry Lane, Northbrook
SPONSOR: League of Women Voters Glenview-Glencoe
Join us for monthly small group discussion on current topics important to Leaguers. We will have topics to guide our discussions each month. No preparation is needed. Just an interest to connect with our community and support each other in our common desire to support our democracy. Non-leaguers welcome.
For our inaugural meeting, we will be looking at ways to stand firm in resisting tyranny with 20 ideas found in Timothy Snyder's book, On Tyranny, a small book, just over 100, 5-inch pages. If you can't read it prior to gathering, it will still provide a lively, encouraging conversation. And we will look at what the LWVUS and LWVIL are currently doing that supports these values.
Space is limited. Sign up available at the beginning of February.
