recently went through my training
to work at the polls
in the upcoming elections
primary election – august 6
general election – november 5
with a diverse group of community members
of all political leanings
wanting to help to support the system
a lot of work, training, time, planning, set up, security measures
go into the process
i saw firsthand how much integrity
figures into the equation
and is top of mind
trying to make is as accurate, easy, and accessible to all people
absentee voting, early voting, drop boxes, in person, and mail-in voting options
i feel good about it
hoping people will
read, listen, talk, watch, question
learn all they can
exercise their right to choose
i’ll be ready for you
and will see you there.
