Information in simple language
Do you have trouble reading and writing? Or don't quite understand the information about the elections? ProDemos and the Stichting Lezen & Schrijven (Reading and Writing Foundation) have created an election newspaper in simple language. No difficult words or long sentences, but lots of pictures and clear explanations.
Election newspaper in plain language
The election paper answers the following questions:
- What does the county do?
- What do water boards do?
- Why vote?
- How do you decide who to vote for?
- Voting: how do you do it?
- Voting: what is allowed and what is not?
Free pickup or download as PDF
You can pick up a newspaper free of charge at the libraries in Beetsterzwaag, Gorredijk and Ureterp. They are also on the newspaper rack in the town hall. Prefer to read digitally? You can download the newspaper as a PDF.
Videos about the election
In addition to the election newspaper, ProDemos also made videos about the elections. The videos explain very clearly how everything works.
