Georgia Hispanic group training volunteers for voter drive

Tagged: , , ,

“After months of rallies, marches and other protests against state and federal immigration legislation they call discriminatory, Georgia Hispanic groups on Saturday began moving their fight to a new front – the ballot box.

The Georgia Association of Latino Elected Officials hosted about two dozen volunteers from across the state for a voter registration training session.

The session was part of “Democracy Summer,” a nationwide effort by unions, Hispanic activists and religious groups trying to convert the street protests of recent months into political power.”
