Poll Workers Needed ASAP

If you live in Franklin County, Ohio and are a Democrat, your help is needed ASAP.
Dispatch:

County elections officials across Ohio are scrambling to find Democrats willing to serve as presiding judges just two weeks from Election Day......
........board needs 135 additional Democratic presiding judges to run the election. That is because Gov. Ted Strickland, a Democrat, won all but 22 of Franklin County's 854 precincts last year. State law requires a presiding judge to be of the same political party as the gubernatorial candidate who last won that precinct.....
....Poll workers earn $110; presiding judges in Franklin County get $160. Those interested in working can register online at http://vote.franklincountyohio.gov or call the Board of Elections at (614) 462-3100.

Delaware County also needs Democratic poll workers. Call the Delaware County Board of Elections at
(740) 833-2080.

If you live in Ohio and are interested in helping to insure fair elections, call your local board of elections and volunteer to work the polls.

>> I bet you are wondering if Republican Rep. Deborah Pryce (OH-15) showed up for the Monday session of the House of Representatives! Keeping with her aversion to working on Mondays, Pryce once again missed votes. According to the Washington Post---- .....Deborah Pryce has missed 107 votes (10.9%) during the current Congress.
