Reply #8: As said above, volunteers [View All]

We're gearing up to do this in November. It was one of the first volunteer jobs I ever had with the Democratic Party back in high school. We sit to the side, not within the voting area, and cross names off as people come in to vote and state their names.

It is volunteer-intensive. It's not fiar to ask people to sit at the polls for more than a few hours so we need many shifts. Phone callers are needed and we try to have a driver or two available for people who can't get themselves to the polls.

I'd urge anyone with some time available on election day to contact their local, county, or state party and volunteer for this.
