#Voting #SmallTownPolitics
I've been invited to become an election moderator in my little town. I volunteered to be a check in person last year.
There's a minimal amount of training and just over minimum wage for pay.
Anyone have experience in this?
I know around here it's VERY long day, because I don't think there's "shifts" of hours.
My town has just about 2500 voters.
He became the first Black mayor of a rural Alabama town. Then a white minority locked him out

After all the #ballots have been cured and the dust settled, only one ballot measure in #LarimerCounty #Colorado is still close enough to trigger to a mandatory recount.
My latest for #KUNC unpacks Timnath ballot question 3H.
Voters in the small, Northern Colorado town of Timnath appear to have narrowly passed a ballot measure that delays redistricting plans for several more years. Ballot question 3H asked voters to weigh in on when the town would shake up council elections, add council seats and create separate council districts.
Into hour 4 of a city council meeting to resolve the grand, yearlong debate over whether my neighborhood's road should have 4 lanes or 3 lanes with bike lanes. π
