ELECTIONS - ELECTION JUDGES AND POLL WATCHERS
There are two opportunities to serve in the upcoming General Election on November 8. Both of these opportunities are very important as they help to ensure fair elections in our County.
First, Election Judges assist with the voting process on Election Day. To sign up to participate as an Election Judge, contact the County Clerk's office or fill out the simple application that is on the County website. Click here to access the form. In the subject box of the form, enter ELECTION JUDGE and your PHONE NUMBER. Leave the message box blank. The County Clerk provides training for these Judges. Training dates TBD. You will be notified by email.
Second, Poll Watchers listen, observe and take notes during elections to ensure that the voting process is legally conducted in polling locations. Training for poll watchers is conducted by the Wyoming Republican Party. This training was conducted prior to the Primary Election and will be reviewed again prior to the General. To get your name on the list, contact Roxie.
Some people are not sure if they should sign up to be a Poll Watcher or an Election Judge. We are encouraging people to sign up for both. You will be plugged in where needed.
