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.”
