I finally got around to doing this and honestly had a blast.

I haven't been involved in party politics since Ron Paul's last run. This time I went in much more low key, with the intention of rubbing elbows, making friends, and becoming a poll watcher.

There was quite a lot of fun debate as primary candidates were giving their pitches. Some very tense exchanges and questioning about mask, vaccine, election fraud, etc! After the candidates spoke, anyone who wanted to volunteer for poll work was able to fill out the forms and get notarized on the spot.

Would highly recommend going for anyone who's hesitating. Be friendly and curious and I think you'll have a great time and the opportunity to not be stewing during the next election because you'll be helping to see it run honestly!

If you don't want to go through the party system, just ask a local candidate directly if they need any help poll watching and they'll be able to hook you up!
