Top 10 Reasons to Vote Local

1. It’s your right! There are people still fighting for the right to vote and influence their government. Use your right and make your voice heard.

2. Local elections have a local effect. Electing representatives that you respect and making sure they follow through on promises will lead to a better city.

3. Your vote has a big impact! There are 58,000 registered voters in Lowell but only about 1 in 8 vote locally. Since smaller numbers of people vote in local elections, your vote could be the difference between someone winning or losing.

4. Elected officials listen to people that vote. Send a message about what matters most to you by voting and speaking with your elected officials.

5. Not voting sends a message, too. If not many people vote, people think that everyone is happy with the way things are, and they might not work toward making things better.

6. Your tax dollars are at stake. City councilors and school committee members vote and make decisions on how money will be spent in Lowell and in the public school system. You can vote to make sure those you trust are in charge.

7. Even if you rent a home, local elections are important! Costs of taxes are often passed on to renters and customers as higher rent and prices, and the local officials make decisions about roads, schools, and many other services.

8. Even if you don’t have kids, the school committee is important! A strong school system creates a strong community, influences property values, and impacts your neighbors. Make sure people you trust are in charge!

9. Local government helps our economy! Decisions that support a strong business community bring money, jobs and positive growth to the city.

10. Voting is good for you! Having a say in the local government has been shown to make people feel more connected to their community and healthier!
