» New Poll Worker PASS Card to Simplify Tracking and Save Money
In an effort to make it easier on you to work elections in Orange County we are creating a new way to track your involvement in each election.  Our new Poll Worker PASS will be provided to all poll workers.  This card will allow you to track, in real time, all of your activities and the make up of your precinct board online.  Plus, by using a single mailing we will reduce printing and postage costs. Stay tuned for more details (due to be launched for use in the June 2010 Primary).
