1. Hear, hear! Don't let anyone push you around. If you

are a judge, use your authority to ensure a fair election, and to prevent frivolous challenges. Good luck!

8. Not just poll workers

I head in this afternoon to work in the tabulation group. Assume we'll start with some sort of training, then work on scanning the absentee ballots, and then working the actual poll device data collection.

Fun factoid: there's a total prohibition on cell phones and other electronic devices.

9. Make sure they're all counted...

11. My wife and I delivered two platters of eats to our poll workers this morning

We've served as poll workers a number of times and know firsthand it can be hard to find a few minutes to grab a bite to eat & drink.

Thanks to the many poll workers out there working for all of us today!!
