    Osher Lifelong Learning Institute (OLLI)Sedona AZ (August 20, 2021) – As part of its fall-term grand reopening, the Osher Lifelong Learning Institute at Yavapai College in Sedona and the Verde Valley (OLLI), along with the League of Women Voters Greater Verde Valley, invite everyone to OLLI’s first combination (in-person and online) program: “Renewing Democracy:  Ranked-Choice Voting and More,” on Wednesday, September 1, from 2:00 – 4:00 p.m. at Yavapai College, Sedona Center, Room 34 and on Zoom.

    20210820_RenewingDemocracyAs partisan battles are raging over voting laws in Washington DC, Phoenix, and state capitals across the country, non-partisan organizations are proposing, and communities are adopting policies that promise to open our gridlocked two-party system to new candidates, more civil campaigning, and greater citizen education and engagement. Ranked-choice voting and open primaries are just two of many such innovations.

    If I Were Curtis Sliwa
    By Tommy Acosta

    One of my guilty little pleasures is imagining what I would do if I was in someone else’s shoes, especially politicians. In this essay I would love to jump into the shoes of Curtis Sliwa, a former New York City vigilante who founded the Guardian Angels and is now running as a Republican for mayor of his city.
