The Centre County Democrats are looking for poll greeters on Election Day! We'd like to cover as many polling places as possible on Election Day. We will provide everything that you might need: masks, hand sanitizer, gloves, campaign literature, and more.

What is a Poll Greeter?
In a nutshell, your responsibility on Election Day can be reduced to two activities: Poll Coverage and Maximizing Turnout. Poll coverage means having at least one person outside the poll to greet voters, distribute sample Democratic ballots and campaign literature, and answer questions. Additionally, you are the eyes and ears for the Democratic Party. You are at the polls to ensure that there is no voter intimidation, voter suppression, or any other issues. Poll coverage is vital because it establishes a Democratic presence in your community and because, in a few instances, it can help influence a person’s vote.

We have 2 shifts for Election Day
Shift 1: 7:00am - 1:30pm
Shift 2: 1:30pm - 8:00pm
*you can do an all-day shift as well!

This sounds like a different effort. The training we received included learning about PA election law. After all, if someone is turned away, a poll observer needs to understand whether that person was legally entitled to cast a regular or provisional ballot.

You already have a job, Amanda: You need to make sure your own vote gets counted!
