This morning, the polls at Downtown fire station on Jackson Ave the same station where so many dead voters cast ballots in the District 29 election between Terry Roland and Ophelia Ford was four workers short. They were so shorthanded, Flyer reporter Chris Davis was offered a job on the spot, apparently because he knew how to vote on a Diebold machine and didnt have to ask a lot of questions.
Were not sure what sorts of rules there are concerning instant hiring at the polls, but this can't be a good sign.

When I voted in the primaries at South Park Elementary almost all of the poll workers seemed to be clueless. I talked to the head lady (who was the only one with a clue) about it and she told me they had a problem getting poll workers. I asked her how one went about becoming a poll worker and she took my name, address and phone number to turn in as interested. I was never called.
