Good Trouble
For any Beans listeners in the state of Wisconsin.
We're looking for volunteers to serve as poll observers on Election Day (4/7) and during the early voting period (3/24 - 4/5). Volunteers will help us protect student voters on 14 college campuses across the state. Your presence can make a big difference in safeguarding the voting process and flag any shenanigans.
No experience is necessary, just a willingness to help protect the rights of student voters.
Everyone will get appropriate training, supplies, etc! If you are interested please email my brilliant coworker, Ella, at [email protected] to get set up!
