Do you want to ensure that every eligible voter has the opportunity to vote and to ensure that everyone’s vote matters and is counted? If so, then Perfecting Democracy Jeopardy is the “perfect” program for you. Our moderator leads our panelists through an interactive discussion on redistricting, voting rights and voter protection. This engaging discussion shows how you can volunteer to help perfect democracy. Just like Jeopardy, you can follow along and play at home!
