ELECTIONS

WORK AT THE POLLS

All 1,850 Election Official shifts have been filled. The Clerk's Office is still looking for eligible voters in the City of Madison who would be willing to volunteer a couple hours of their time on Election Day as part of the Quality Assurance Team at the polls. Members of the Quality Assurance Team will be trained and sworn in as Election Officials. They will assist in processing the absentee ballots at the polling places on Election Day, as they time how long it takes for voters to get through the check-in line. If the line becomes long, they will call the Clerk's Office for additional staff. Throughout Election Day the Quality Assurance Team will also verify that the number of voter slips handed out equals the number of ballots fed through the tabulator.

• Sign up for a shift on the Quality Assurance Team website.
• Sign up for a training session on the Election Official Training Sessions website.
• Training materials can be viewed on the Training website.

Madison City Channel will replay one of the training sessions at 9 p.m. on Friday, October 31, and at 8:30 a.m. on Monday, November 3.
