As administrators of elections, counties manage 100,000 polling places, over 630,000 poll workers
WASHINGTON – Ahead of Election Day, the National Association of Counties (NACo) today extended its appreciation to more than half a million Americans—our dedicated county election administrators
and volunteers—who help carry out the election process with over 160 million registered voters across America.
“The election process is core to our democracy. We are proud of the prominent role county officials play in administering our nation’s elections for federal, state and local offices,”
said NACo Executive Director Matthew Chase. “Planning for elections is an effort that county officials, along with our intergovernmental partners, are dedicated to all year, every year.”
The county role in election administration is extensive in most states and localities, including funding and managing over 100,000 polling places staffed by over 630,000 poll workers.
County officials work tirelessly before, during and after elections to facilitate our nation’s elections for federal, state and local elected positions. These duties often include detailed
roles with voter registration, ballot preparation, early voting, absentee ballots, election security, and post-election auditing for compliance and accuracy.
“NACo urges residents to join us in recognizing the poll workers and election officials who are performing a vital civic duty,” said Chase. “We can honor that contribution to our communities
and our nation’s democratic process by working together to promote civility and safeguard the wellbeing of election workers, candidates and voters.”
