The “Take Our Daughters to the Polls” campaign has been launched to call on all parents to take their daughters to the polls when they vote on Tuesday, November 4.
The Girl Scouts has joined the “Take Our Daughters to the Polls” coalition created by the White House Project, a nonpartisan, not-for-profit organization dedicated to advancing women’s leadership in the United States, and supported by numerous national organizations.
The purpose is to encourage adults to speak with their daughters about the importance of voting and to show them how to participate in the electoral process.

There was some confusion last year as whether this event was a private party or open to the public. It is a private party!
