<p style='margin-left:.5in'>A Message from Betsey Swan, President:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p style='margin-left:.5in'>Recently the state League completed a survey
prepared by the LWVUS about the strength of its operations. The results
of this survey are attached. LWVUS is now asking all local Leagues to
take the same survey. Please print your results and e-mail, FAX, or
send them to the state League. We will compile the results and use the
results to provide services to local Leagues.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p style='margin-left:.5in'>Click <a
href="http://lists.lwv.org/t/974376/5213066/1372/0/" id=A146>here</a> to take
this short, easy survey. The survey will be available for responding until
Saturday, May 1, 2010. Thank you!<o:p></o:p></p>
