Happy National Poll Worker Recruitment Day, Friend!

Our elections rely on everyday people working the polls and making sure every vote is counted.

Today we need poll workers more than ever because a scared and desperate Trump is trying to suppress voting across the country.

In honor of today’s holiday, will you sign up for a phonebank with Bend the Arc to recruit poll workers heading into the midterms?

Jews for Election Protection Phonebanks

📍Tonight! Tuesday, August 11
Calling into Pennsylvania
6 – 8pm ET

📍Monday, August 17
Calling into North Carolina with Carolina Jews for Justice
6 – 8pm ET

Volunteers have said this is their favorite kind of phonebank: You’ll be talking to fellow Bend the Arc members in critical states like Pennsylvania and North Carolina, who care about protecting our democracy and are ready to be organized.

Whether you’re a first-time caller or a seasoned phonebanker, you’ll get trained live, have meaningful conversations, and fill a critical gap. Because it takes about 1 million poll workers to run an election, but election administrators don’t have the resources to recruit as many people as they need this year.

Today, celebrate National Poll Worker Recruitment Day: sign up to phone bank TONIGHT or this coming Monday with fellow Jews and allies.

In solidarity,

Antisemitism Campaign Manager, Bend the Arc
