Unleashing the Storytelling Power of Comic Book Art to Engage and Inform Voters
Program Summary
Snohomish County Elections designed an eye-catching and universally approachable comic book series to inform voters on everything from voter registration to processing ballots to tabulating results. This voter education initiative proved to be popular, sustainable, cost-effective, and easily replicated by other election officials and educational partners.
