Sign up to be a

poll worker today!

Your community needs more people like you to work at the polls on Election Day. In fact, Alaska must recruit and train hundreds of poll workers in communities across the state every election year. But you can help.

Your local election officials can teach you everything you need to know to do the job. You just need to be a resident of Alaska who is also registered to vote in Alaska.

The job isn’t complicated and those who have worked at the polls will tell you it’s one of the most rewarding ways you can help your community.

Be A Pol l Worker.

It’s as easy as 1-2-3.

1 First, you’ll attend a paid training session to learn how to be a poll worker. Then, you’re ready to go to work.

2 On Election Day, you’ll help set up the polling place before your neighbors arrive to vote.

3 Finally, you’ll check voters in at the poll-ing place and issue ballots. Once the day is done, you and your fellow poll workers will close the polling place.

Your neighbors are counting on you. Fill out the form on the opposite page and apply today to pitch in at the polls.

Help carry the torch.
