The Committee of Seventy, PA Youth Vote, and the League of Women Voters welcomed over 200 high school students from Philadelphia for a celebration of National Vote Early Day at City Hall.

Many say our political polarization is the worst it’s ever been, that corruption is rampant, that they don’t know who to trust. But we don’t have to feel this way. Because the people who make democracy happen—who run elections and staff polling places and work every day to make our union more perfect—they’re us. They’re you. Join us. And let’s get to work.

Philadelphia and PA will need poll workers on Election Day. There are few civic duties more important to our Democracy than staffing polling locations, especially during COVID. Are you seriously considering being a poll worker? Are you willing to work a 15+ hour day, in any area of your city, no matter the COVID situation? If you answered yes to ALL of these questions, join us to learn more about becoming a poll worker, including the basic responsibilities/functions, and basic processes.
