It will highlight the critical role veterans and military families play in ensuring that election processes remain fair, transparent, and secure for all voters,” Vet the Vote said in a news release.There is a national shortage of qualified poll workers, with the Election Assistance Commission (EAC) reporting from the 2016 election that a majority of jurisdictions polled shared that it was “very difficult” or “somewhat difficult” to recruit staff.
