Is there an Obama game plan for volunteers to bring snacks and drinks to polling places? |

I think I'll stock up on some stuff in case the people I'm driving the polls need a Scooby snack....

2. I am a Precinct Chair, at training yesterday they instructed us to bring food and drinks |
|
as we will be there ALL day from 6:00 am until (?)
This year we are allowed to bring laptops, but if you don't have a laptop they suggested a book to help during slow times.
If I need additional food or drinks my hubby can bring them to me, we're about a block away from the polls.

7. Packaged Rice Krispy Treats? Sure, it's just sugar, but it's comfort also. |

5. I'm a poll worker and I'm bringing the leftover |
|
candy from Halloween to pass out if we get a line waiting. If it really gets crowded, I'll send hubby out for cookies. It's more keeping up the spirits than providing food.

8. Having a few Orange Juice bottles and a few packets of sugar handy would be a good idea. Candy bars |
|
also. I'm not diabetic, just thinking about the risk to them in a long wait line.
