Twin Civic Summits in the Twin Cities

This week two civic participation summits head to the land of lakes and high voter participation, Minnesota. Check out the agendas for the National Civic Summit July 15-17 and annual meeting of the National Association of Secretaries of State. Lots of civic and voter participation leaders gathering. The Nonprofit Voter Engagement Network and its Nonprofits Count! campaign is co-leading a workshop with the Leadership Conference for Civil Rights on the key role for nonprofit participation in the 2010 Census. The NASS convening could tell us a great deal about future directions for universal voter registration and other election reforms.
