Lambda Theta Phi Foundation Sponsors Latino Voter Project
Miami, FL – Lambda Theta Phi National Foundation announced the formation of its legal assistance team for the upcoming New Jersey General Elections. The team will assist in securing voting rights for all Latino voters and will consist of attorneys, Kendall Coffey, former US Attorney for South Florida , along with Luis Fernandez, Joseph S. Geller, Benedict Kuehne, Richard Porras, and Adam Subervi. Other attorneys maybe added as needs arise.
The project was initiated during the summer with a voter registration drive and absentee voter assistance program on college campuses and communities throughout the nation, which resulted in the several thousands of new voters. The Foundation also sponsored student training seminars on college campuses that taught cross-cultural campaigning and organizational skills.
“Lambda Theta Phi Foundation is educating Latino college and university students as well as the community about their rights and duties as American citizens and providing the means to actively participate in the exercise of democracy. We’ve experienced remarkable results in communities through the actions of the students,” said Foundation Chairman Agustin “Gus” Garcia. “We thank SBS, their staff, DJs and radio talk hosts for all of their assistance, especially Mega and Amor of New York City with this most valuable program during the past several months.”
Garcia went on to point out that the program goes beyond the usual election-session media blitzes about candidates and campaigns and actually educates to voter to be able to make intelligent choices based on a true understanding of the issues and process.
For any problems with Latino voting rights in New Jersey , please contact the Foundation at www.Foundation1975.com or call 1-877-FND-1975 (1-877-363-1975).
