Interested lawyers and law students should sign up with Power the Polls at powerthepolls.org/wetheaction. Then, interested applicants will be directed to their local election administrator's website to complete their application. Power the Polls will provide guidance throughout the process. Lawyers may have any bar license and the project is open to law students.
