Upcoming Election Yields Opportunity, Civic Engagement for 香蕉福利直播 Students
Students help build network, community and democracy all in one night... and it pays!
The is one of 香蕉福利直播鈥檚 critical partners when it comes to civic engagement. has been working with the CCBOE to better engage students and our campus community through supporting their work鈥攑articularly around the elections taking place each year.
To that end, the partnership is yielding another great opportunity for students. CCBOE needs Election Night Ballot Box Openers on Tuesday, August 2, 2022 for Election Night Processing. The four-hour guaranteed-pay job earns $15.00 per hour per student; 125 slots are available.
Duties for the evening include transporting ballot boxes upon arrival to the processing and storage areas; transferring and organizing contents of a canvas ballot box to a cardboard ballot box and collecting miscellaneous items from the tables and delivering them to the appropriate work areas. Election Night workers will also assist with unloading canvas bags off vans, in the Electronic Poll Book processing area and in the CCBOE Ballot Box Clean Out area.
香蕉福利直播 first partnered with the CCBOE for the November 2021 election and 78 香蕉福利直播 students participated. A second partnership for the May 2022 Primary Election found 97 香蕉福利直播 students signed up to assist. 香蕉福利直播鈥檚 OCE director Anita Ruf-Young recognizes those numbers may be more difficult to hit in the summer, with students on campus at a minimum. She remains positive about the potential Viking turnout for next month's election.
鈥淭he more students we can get out into the trenches, the better chance we have of getting them engaged and actually voting as well,鈥 said Ruf-Young. 鈥淣ot just now, but well into the future. We have seen enthusiasm surrounding our partnership with CCBOE spreading, which is incredibly positive. Participating in democracy is critical, as is understanding processes and procedures for it.鈥
