One issue that seems to arise every election is a shortage of poll workers. Lack of poll workers seems to translate into lack of ballots being distributed and/or counted properly and, ultimately, voter disenfranchisement is the result.
After the 2002 Election, I was determined to be more involved in this year’s election by participating as a Poll Worker. I encourage you to do the same.
Also, if you speak another language besides English, you could be a big help as an interpreter.
I did a search on “poll workers san francisco” and found my local Department of Elections. The page gave me a phone number to call for more information. The recording at the number said that first-timers should come by City Hall in person in August. So that’s what I’ll do.
hey lisa,
what do you think about kerry? imo bush is not the problem, the military-industrial complex is the problem, and kerry is just another stooge. he’s going to ‘keep 95%’ of the patriot act. that’s bad.
if we we accept kerry, we’re accepting big brother.
i’d say it’s time for another boston tea party, eh
