Our Wisconsin campaign manager Jessica Switzer has been checked in by the same Black woman at her Milwaukee polling place since she was 18.
She told @TheRoot why more Black poll workers matter this election season 🗳️💛

Election officials are prepared to respond to any actions that could interfere with your right to vote.
“Election officials and voting rights groups across Arizona are preparing for such scenarios, even though they may not materialize.” ⤵️
Many election officials and experts think it’s unlikely that ICE will interfere in the election. But it’s a serious enough threat that they’re preparing anyway. votebeat.org/arizona/2026/10…
This is what voter intimidation looks like.
Every eligible voter has the right to cast a ballot without fear or intimidation.
That right doesn’t change depending on who shows up at a home or near a polling place.
Armed and in uniform, agents from the Department of Homeland Security have been knocking on doors to ask residents about their immigration status whether they're registered to vote. cbsn.ws/4yzObDZ
“Election protection doesn’t begin or end on Election Day, and neither should our support for the dedicated workers who make our voting possible.”

Today, we celebrate Election Hero Day! 🗳️
Election Day is one day, but it takes months of work from election officials, poll workers, and volunteers who ensure everyone can make their voice heard.
We’re thanking the heroes who keep our elections running ✨
Weaponizing law enforcement to intimidate voters is never ok. The freedom to vote is a constitutional right, and everyone should feel safe while exercising their freedom to vote.
Tonight, 60 Minutes is covering the election officials holding the line in the face of federal interference. ⤵️
On Friday, the Justice Department threatened to prosecute California election officials who knowingly count mail-in ballots from people the Trump administration identified as “likely noncitizens.”
This Sunday, 60 Minutes reports on state and local election officials who are resisting what they see as pressure from Washington. 60Minutes.com
No Kings is being silenced on Instagram at the peak of a national day of action, but the movement is bigger than any one platform.
We will continue organizing, communicating and making our voices heard.
Join us in demanding @Meta restore their accounts.

Hannah Fried and All Voting Is Local are working tirelessly with bipartisan state and local officials to achieve a future where every vote counts at the local level, and everyone has access to the promise of American democracy.

“Overall, our survey found that election experts are cautiously optimistic that the 2026 midterms will be administered fairly — even in the face of significant challenges.”
The people who watch elections most closely think it’s possible federal agents will disrupt voting but doubt any elections will be overturned. votebeat.org/national/2026/1…

Judges keep reaching the same conclusion: the federal government has no right to voters' private data, and no business using it to take away their freedom to vote.
🚨BREAKING: A judge ruled the DOJ's policy of collecting states' unredacted voter rolls and urging them to remove voters flagged as ineligible is illegal.
"This policy...has left untold numbers of disenfranchised voters in its wake and inflicted injuries to the Plaintiffs' privacy," the court wrote.
How are ballots counted?
Who runs your local election?
What does a poll worker actually do?
What are your rights at the polls?
Good questions.
