Greetings, Michigan needs more poll workers for August and November, and on behalf of the Michigan Department of State, I'm reaching out to ask for help from you and the Libraries in Michigan. Participating as a poll worker during the early voting period as well as on Election Day is a direct way for Michigan residents to support safe, secure, and accessible elections locally. Michigan residents aged 16 and up can sign up to serve at Michigan.gov/PollWorker<https://www.michigan.gov/sos/elections/pollworker>. Our team has developed a Poll Worker Recruitment Toolkit<https://www.michigan.gov/sos/-/media/Project/Websites/sos/Elections/DemocracyMVP/2024-Democracy-MVP-Toolkit.pdf?rev=0999e836214f456fa624b7f2ebe85238&hash=1D5A3C67BC1FA74AFADE9A2B8E172AFD>, which is available for you to support recruitment efforts, and contains easy to use resources including: * Social media graphics * Videos * Pre-drafted email and newsletter templates * Direct links to other ways you and your employees can support our elections. Please use these resources to share the need for more poll workers in Michigan and to promote the opportunity to serve. You can learn more about the State of Michigan's poll worker recruitment program at Michigan.gov/PollWorker<https://www.michigan.gov/sos/elections/pollworker>. Thank you for your existing partnership and civic leadership. Sincerely, Sarah Reinhardt Interim Deputy Chief of External Affairs Michigan Department of State Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson ReinhardtS@Michigan.gov<mailto:ReinhardtS@Michigan.gov>
