We got in just last Tuesday and had so so so much mail from three months gone by the time I sorted through all of it and figured out if I had received

The correct ballot and figured out if I was still in time etc etc etc it seemed daunting amidst a move out and apt closing and move in tbh

I figured I may just have to skip but thinks have gotten better now so I came back up to Times Square one more time...

And voted for warren

Nice, glad you felt comfortable voting in person and that it went smoothly. - Krusty Jun 23, 04:58 8
- Yeah I felt really bad for the volunteer workers — all elderly, Most of color— all the vulnerable populations - JackDawson Jun 23, 05:05 7
  - Poll workers get paid but yeah, they're always the most vulnerable. - Krusty without grass Jun 23, 05:10 6
    - But not the monitors? -- nm - JackDawson Jun 23, 06:12 1
      - I can only speak about the poll workers. I don't know anything about the monitors who I think are hired by the parties and not the state. -- nm - Krusty without grass Jun 23, 06:15
    - do they get paid everywhere? -- nm - amanda Jun 23, 06:05 3
      - $400-$1,000 for election day in Australia, depending on position. -- nm - mafic Jun 23, 06:31
      - My understanding is that they're all paid, in every state. -- nm - Krusty without grass Jun 23, 06:11 1
        
        But the pay varies from state to state. In NYC a poll worker is paid $15 an hour. They raised it recently as they're having a hard time - Krusty without grass Jun 23, 06:13
