Students at UT Tyler will work as poll workers and take part in the Polling Place Observation Project during the 2018 election.Opportunities exist for Early Voting (Oct 22 - Nov 2) and Election Day (Nov. 6)
- Students in POLS 3335 should be signed up to work between 3 and 5 hours with Smith County as a poll worker.
- Then choose two hour time frames to observe the election with a peer. Here one person will be inside the polling location and one person will be outside. On a form you will document every 10 minutes how long it takes for a person to vote. This applies to POLS 3335 students and all volunteers.
Contact Mark Owens (mowens@uttyler.edu) to choose a time and be assigned a location.
Note IF YOU ARE NOT TRAINED TO BE A POLLWORKER (Smith County), you must be an OUTSIDE observer.
Details are not finalized until they are posted on the page.
