Volunteers needed: Buncombe County Board of Elections board meetings
Mar 8 @ 5:30 pm – 8:30 pm

Volunteers are needed to attend all Buncombe County Board of Elections board meetings. Our presence demonstrates our support for the board, reduces the likelihood of intimidation by election deniers and will insure the board proceedings are documented in a timely manner.

We have a number of members attending these meetings, and they alternate who will be taking notes. Please sign up if you’re willing to attend and take a turn with note-taking.

As the March 5th primary nears, you’ll see that board meetings are long and we are not expecting anyone to stay beyond 2 hours. We are encouraging our attendees to coordinate shifts with each other. Please sign up for the days you can attend and plan for some flexibility please.

This is such an important contribution to protecting our democracy and honoring Buncombe County’s excellent Board of Elections!
