Anybody been contacted for poll monitoring?

[AngryOldDem]

In September, I received an e-mail from someone locally looking for poll monitors on Election Day. I sent an e-mail to the Kerry camp (as I was told to do) but have yet heard nothing from anyone.

Does anyone know when they will be mapping strategy on this? According to this AM's Dayton Daily News, monitoring is going to be a very big deal in some precincts, especially those with a high number of newly registered voters.

Just wondering.

2. I'm a poll watcher in Leon county, FL. I had to contact them

though.

3. Your local office should be planning for monitors

Have they had a GOTV meeting yet? That's one of the things on the agenda.

4. Don't think so.

I'm probably going to have to call them.

The e-mail sounded urgent, which is why I responded to it. Don't know what's been going on since.

5. I'm poll monitoring in Columbus

but it is through People for the American Way, not the local party.

6. I got the Election Protection link

in the e-mail that had the address of a MontCo party official. I tried searching my mail for it, but it must have gotten deleted. I guess I'm going to have to try calling around on Monday.

10. I could swear I volunteered through this site only to find

they didn't really need folks in Montgomery Co./Dayton area.

Am I confused?

Anyway, I went ahead and volunteered at our local Dem HQ and haven't heard a word from them.

I'm ready when they are!

11. Why am I not surprised?

I know I sent HQ an e-mail and they e-mailed me back. :shrug:

They'd better get cracking on this.

I'll let you know what I find out.

The Kerry Campaign is currently recruiting Poll Managers for all polling locations in the county. Poll Managers are responsible for recruiting poll monitors (who also hand out sample ballots) and for recruiting other campaign volunteers to work GOTV throughout the day. Contact the local headquarters.
