Election laws that make it easy to vote and hard to cheat are essential. But personnel is policy. You must also have the right people dedicated to carrying out those policies. With individuals committed to fairly carrying out election laws, Georgia’s elections are less vulnerable to fraud and voters can have greater confidence in our state’s election system.
Poll Workers have a direct impact on protecting the election process. Serving as a poll worker is the best way to ensure the law is fairly administered. As sworn election officials, poll workers are on the front lines to ensure there is a fair playing field for all candidates.
Poll Watchers add another layer of transparency to the election process. They are trained and credentialed by a political party to ensure that election procedures are being followed. Poll watchers look out for laws and procedures being applied fairly and raise questions and concerns to a designated poll worker.
