I help out with getting pollworkers assigned in our county. It usually takes about 5 weeks to get all of the positions filled for the Democratic side. And it was done without any help from the Election Board. This year it took only 2 weeks to get them all filled and we got applications forwarded to us from the Election Board from people wanting to work the polls. Maybe over 400 received.

Then out of the blue the Election Board said they needed some positions filled on the Republican side because the party couldn't get them filled. We filled most if not all of those with our people.
