Election-day volunteers neededThis is a featured page

Many states have been overwhelmed by voter registration and are desperately short on poll workers for election day. As blackleatherrain says on the Working the polls page

A good poll worker can ensure the validity and quality of their precinct's poll results. A poor poll worker can cause strife in the polling process, and result in registered voters losing their most fundamental of rights as an American of majority age.

Pollworkers for Democracy has a national signup page. This page has action alerts for specific states.

Virginia

Virginia estimates they need 2000 more poll workers! You must be a registered voter in Virginia -- and that is the only requirement.

If you'd like to help, please reply to sapsel@vavoterprotection.com.
