DID YOU KNOW???

1. Pollworkers get PAID for working the Elections!!!

2. Georgia is recognized as a national leader in elections. It was the first state in the country to implement the trifecta of automatic voter registration, at least 17 days of early voting (which has been called the “gold standard”), and no-excuse absentee voting. Georgia continues to set records for voter turnout and election participation, seeing the largest increase in average turnout of any other state in the 2018 midterm election and record turnout in 2020, and 2022. 2022 achieved the largest single day of in-person early voting turnout in Georgia midterm history utilizing Georgia’s secure, paper ballot voting system. Most recently, Georgia ranked #1 for Election Integrity by the Heritage Foundation, a top ranking for Voter Accessibility by the Center for Election Innovation & Research and tied for number one in Election Administration by the Bipartisan Policy Center.

3. Pollworkers must take an oath before each election swearing that they will do their duty to the best of their ability to prevent any fraud, abuse, or deceit in the election and that they will allow all voters who are in good standing to vote.

4. All testing of equipment is open to public.  A test of each and every piece of equipment used in the election is tested before use by voters.  This includes the pollpad, bmds, and the scanners.
