Every Election Day, thousands of Ohioans contribute to their local communities and serve our country as poll workers. By doing so, they play an important role in preserving democracy by safeguarding our election process.
Although many poll workers enjoy the process so much they continue to serve year after year, we need more of them as Delaware County continues to grow. Being a poll worker is a great opportunity for registered voters that are able to make time on Election Day. If you choose to work at a poll, you will receive training and are paid for your time. It’s a great way for students, part-time employees, retired citizens and people with flexible schedules to serve their communities!
Delaware County needs your help. Please make a commitment to serve as a poll worker today! |
