Become a Poll Worker
ELECTIONS CAN’T FUNCTION WITHOUT QUALIFIED POLL WORKERS
Why not have Tea Party Members help out!
As you know, the 2010 elections are coming up and Arizona voters will go out in full force this fall and vote.
Arizona has more than 2,200 polling locations. To function properly, each location needs approximately seven poll workers. That adds up to more than 14,000 poll workers needed. Poll workers are paid for their time.
