With the Nov. 3 general election approaching, states across the country are recruiting poll workers to serve on Election Day and during the early voting period.
Poll workers perform a variety of functions. They may help set up or break down polling places, greet and check in voters, issue and transport ballots, and perform other tasks to support the election.
States have different laws and requirements governing who may serve as a poll worker, how much they are paid, and what training they must complete.
