So You Want to be a Poll Worker

Poll workers are democracy’s essential workers! This information session will cover the basics of working the polls in Pennsylvania. It is perfect for a first-time poll worker or experienced poll worker who wants to brush up on their knowledge.

We will be hosting multiple sessions of “So You Want to be a Poll Worker” in the lead-up to the 2023 primary. All the info sessions titled “So You Want to be a Poll Worker” will be identical, so you only need to sign up for ONE session.
