Information in simple language
Do you have difficulty reading and writing? Or do you not fully understand the information about the elections? ProDemos has collaborated with the Reading & Writing Foundation to produce 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 newspaper answers the following questions:
- What does the province do?
- What do water boards do?
- Why vote?
- How do you decide who to vote for?
- Voting: how does it work?
- Voting: what is allowed and what is not?
Free pickup or download as PDF
You can pick up a free copy of the newspaper at the libraries in Beetsterzwaag, Gorredijk, and Ureterp. They are also available in the newspaper rack at the town hall. Prefer to read digitally? You can download the newspaper as a PDF.
Videos about the elections
In addition to the election newspaper, ProDemos also made videos about the elections. The videos explain very clearly how everything works.
