VOTER EDUCATION (iVOTE)
Hawaii Family Forum and Hawaii Catholic Conference is committed to urge the faithful to
- Register to vote;
- Be knowledgeable about issues and where candidates stand on those issues and
- Motivate and get believers to go out and vote.
HFF/HCC does not endorse candidates or political parities! We are, however, able to provide information that will be used by voters to make sound decisions. This campaign is called iVOTE, and you will be hearing more about this campaign after the end of session.
