This is as local as politics gets.
You know your country, your state, and your city. But can you identify your ward and division? Many people can't, so here's a quick overview: Philadelphia is divided into wards, and each ward is divided into divisions. Two committee people represent each division, which is an area of a couple square blocks. If you're reading this, it means you live in the 46th ward, and the 17th division. Together, we can ensure our division has high voter turnout, and that our voices are heard in Harrisburg and City Hall. We can share information and resources. And we can build a stronger, more connected community here in West Philly. |
