League of Women Voters: Pump Up Your Voting Skills

Have you been reading news stories about the long lines that are expected at the polls? Tell your family, friends, and neighbors they can make the Nov. 4 election day more efficient by pumping up their skills on Falls Church City’s eSlate voting machine.  Our League is sponsoring hands-on demonstrations with a mock slate of candidates that include Abraham Lincoln and Betsy Ross. You can stop by to try out eSlate:

- Wednesday, October 8, 9 a.m.-1:30 p.m., Mary Riley Styles Library

- Tuesday, October 14, 10-2 p.m., Community Center

- Thursday, October 16, 3-7 p.m., Mary Riley Styles Library

- Monday, October 20, 3-7 p.m., Community Center

For a virtual experience on eSlate, check out the front page of the city’s web site: http://www.fallschurchva.gov/.  You can also take eSlate for a spin at the city’s Office of the Registrar of Voters (300 Park Ave.) during weekday business hours, and on Saturdays, October 25 and Nov. 1, when the Registrar’s office will be open from 9 a.m.-5 p.m.
