Welcome back to the Law School Toolbox podcast! Today, we're talking about something a bit different -- our experiences as poll workers. Yes, Lee and Alison both worked at a polling station in the last election! It's a unique experience, and one you might even be interested in trying out.  In this episode we discuss: Why it's important to get involved in the election process in your community How does the sign up and training process work? Insights on what Election Day looks like in San Francisco Why this stuff is actually really hard to get right Do you get paid to be a poll worker? What Alison and Lee found worked well, and what improvements could be made to the process Resources: U.S. Election Assistance Commission (https://www.eac.gov/voters/become-poll-worker) Find My State or Local Election Office Website (https://www.usa.gov/election-office) Download the Transcript  (https://lawschooltoolbox.com/episode-231-our-experience-working-at-the-polls-on-election-day/) If you enjoy the podcast, we'd love a nice review and/or rating on Apple Podcasts (https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/law-school-toolbox-podcast/id1027603976) or your favorite listening app. And feel free to reach out to us directly.
