What we are doing ...

Seting up the Election Integrity Permanent Infrastructure Committee (1)


Description: County Board of Elections Liaison (Leads all local Task Force Interactions with County Board of Elections)


The Process

a) Every BOE member inspects every container (envelope) to assure there is a witness signature/notary.

b) All BOE members open the containers. Lay ballots flat.

c) Ballots are run through the machine.

d) The number of containers (envelopes) must equal the number of ballots. (Ask to see the receipt.)

e) Ballots are then placed in a secure container. Sealed with a tampered proof seal. All BOE members sign. Ask to see the serial numbers on the seal. Take note of it.


Don't be afraid to ask questions before or after the process. They need to see us and understand we are watching. Be nice.


REMEMBER From the Training: We need to make this a permanent committee along with the others below. For this primary, we can establish (1) and (2) Poll Observers, employees, and greeters (Recruited & trained at all voting locations.) After this Primary, we continue to meet and work to establish the other committees. There will be Zoom and in-person meetings to accomplish this. Thanks!!
