John,

Election officials are currently deciding how many polling places to open for the 2022 elections based on how many people have signed up to work the polls. And your state currently has a shortage of poll workers.

Fewer polling places means longer travel times, longer lines, and more voter disenfranchisement – especially for BIPOC voters, working-class voters, and voters with disabilities.

We know that you care about protecting voting rights for all, especially given the high stakes of the upcoming midterm elections. That is why SumOfUs is partnering with Power the Polls to sign up as many poll workers as possible today – Poll Worker Recruitment Day.

Will you sign up to be a poll worker to help ensure that your state keeps all its polling places open for the midterms?

Poll workers are critical to help maintain safe in-person voting for communities without reliable access to mail service, voters with disabilities, voters who need language assistance, and for voters who simply want to cast their ballot in-person as they always have.

Serving as a poll worker is a valuable way to give back to your community and support your neighbors. It’s one of the most effective ways you can help break down barriers to voting and uphold our democracy.

Poll working is fun, nonpartisan, and you may even get paid! Do your part to ensure safe, free, and fair elections for all voters.

Sign up to be a poll worker today.

SumOfUs and hundreds of other groups across the country helped Power the Polls sign up over 700,000 poll workers in 2020. But we need your help if we want to do it again this year.
