Dear College Now Supporters,
At College Now, we know the importance of community support. And, as the November election quickly approaches, the Cuyahoga County Board of Elections needs that community help. Given the heightened importance of this year’s election during the pandemic, they need to hire more than 6,000 essential workers to ensure a fair, transparent, accurate, and bi-partisan election. They especially need Precinct Election Officials to staff polling locations on November 3rd, and they try to assign workers at a polling location nearby where they live.
