Letcher Chapter Registers Voters
Mountain Heritage 2011 in Letcher County was a great weekend filled with great music, delicious festival treats and of course some Voter Empowerment. Despite some cool weather on Friday, the crowds were energized and friendly. Helping out at the table that day was Celeste Johnson, she helped register 5 voters and gather 8 signatures on our petition for better taxes for Kentucky’s working class.
"Tabling at the festival is a nice way to talk to new peopleâ€, Johnson said.
The next day the weather was much better and the crowd was even larger, and we registered 7 more folks and collected even more signatures on the tax petition.
There were many great conversations had at the KFTC table this year, and great folks to continue talking about the future of Kentucky. Over all we registered 12 new voters and can’t wait for our next opportunity to register more.
