@video_manager @rbreich #ProDemocracy Americans must be as relentless as RepubliCONS. #volunteer to register voters, become an #ElectionWorker, canvas, phone bank, donate, whatever you can doβ¦
If we do not #DefendDemocracy we will lose it forever. πββοΈπΊπΈπ³οΈ

These are the people at the front lines of our democracy. If they feel threatened then democracy is threatened it's just that simple. Protect them!
#Federal effort to boost #electionworker #protections fizzles
βWe need to take care of the people that work in #elections,β said #CiscoAguilar, shortly after he won his midterms race to be #Nevadaβs next secretary of state. βThey shouldnβt feel intimidated or harassed going to the car at the end of the day.β He added: βWe have to have their back.β

I've only been a #ElectionWorker for the last two years, but have found it to be a fun and positive experience.
Just before I started, my county had switched from the big heavy Voter Rolls books to sleek, fast, light & secure PolPads.
Some older voters balk at signing in digitally, but the veteran workers all agree they're way better!
I'm looking forward to returning next year!
(Also, our county leads send us trivia ?s throughout the day& I've won treats for my fellow workers every time, lol)
My Mum sent me this earlier& asked me to share it with any other Election Workers I know. #ElectionWorker
Tomorrow I will spend at least 15 hours (plus total travel time of 1.5 hours) defending democracy as a poll worker (Asst Supervisor). My supplies include Diet Coke (*lots* of Diet Coke), slimfast meal bars, and those little cheese portions that remind me of the 1st year university dorm weekend food scrounge. Yay me? Shout out to everyone who keeps democracy going! #ElectionWorker

Secondly, make sure to read this important whistleblower guide: https://whistleblower.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/Election-Workers-Guide-6.pdf
@yuhline
I'm a NYS #ElectionWorker so I'll be at my local site at 530 to set up before doors open, then spend the day checking voters in, handing out ballots(and stickers), and finally tearing down after polls close& going home to watch Kornacki, lol.
@Leefromphilly
Lee, Is this your first time as an #ElectionWorker ?
I'm in the midst of my 2nd year as an Election Inspector. My experiences have been mostly positive& I've enjoyed helping people. You will likely have other seasoned vets working alongside you if you get nervous or have questions. You got this!
It's that time of year for me again!
#ElectionWorker training day!
It's not too late to contact your local Board of Elections and sign up!
#MidtermElections are exactly two months away! If you've ever thought about becoming an #ElectionWorker this is a great time to sign up!
Many states have already begun scheduling training sessions for new and returning workers. (I just got my reminder letter in the mail today!)
The US Elections Assistance Commission has a handy dandy state-by-state lookup tool to find information on being a poll worker in your community, including requirements, hours, pay, training, and more. Links are provided so you can sign up directly with your state or local election office!

Many states are facing #ElectionWorker shortages due to COVID. You can help out by signing up with your state Board of Elections. Training is provided as well as pay for days worked. I just signed up for my training& look forward to it!
