Hey Indivisibles,
Poll workers are the backbone of the election system, and we wouldn’t have
safe and smooth elections without them. Unfortunately, during the 2020
cycle, we saw a huge reduction in workers at the poll, and that trend is
continuing on during the midterms.
Poll workers help make sure our democracy is safe, and our elections are
fair.
Poll workers support early voting locations, ensure technology functions,
and help minimize long lines and delays at polling places on Election Day.
Because the number of poll workers at a polling place impacts whether a
polling place opens on Election Day, poll worker shortages can lead to
long lines and voter disenfranchisement, especially in communities of
color and low income communities.Â
We here at Indivisible are proud to partner with Power the Polls, a
first-of-its-kind nonpartisan initiative to recruit poll workers to ensure
a safe, fair, efficient election for all voters. Primaries are already
underway, and we are already seeing an urgent need for poll workers to
ensure our elections run smoothly. That’s why our ask of you today isn’t
to make a call, or attend an event.

election administrators regarding your application.
This may sound like a big ask from us, but we wouldn’t ask if it wasn’t
something urgent. Signing up to be a poll worker may sound slightly
complicated, but don’t worry: the Power the Polls team will help you along
the way. Once you sign up, Power the Polls will provide you with more
information about the application process and what to expect when you

would rather be in this fight with than you.Â
In solidarity,
