Become a Poll Worker in Your Community
As the coronavirus pandemic continues to affect people in communities all across the country, we are facing a national shortage of poll workers. This shortage could result in closed polling places and long delays for elections this year. Learn more and sign up to be a poll worker. In collaboration with Power the Polls, you can connect with your local municipality and navigate the sign-up process. Share the call to become a poll worker on your social media networks using this toolkit.
