The guest speaker at the February 14th DAR meeting, which was held at Brunswick Electric in Supply was Melissa Monroe, Deputy Director for Brunswick County Board of Elections. Melissa told us Brunswick County has 26 precincts with a total of 9,674 registered voters. The Board of Elections is responsible for voter registration and keeping the voter rolls up to date. To make elections work smoothly they depend on many volunteers. The only abilities needed to work at the polls are minimal computer skills/ be familiar with typing on a computer and available to work a full and long day. There is a stipend offered to each volunteer working the polls. If you are considering being a poll worker the Board of Elections offers Poll Worker Orientations. This orientation is a free, informational seminar about all the ABCs of being a Poll Worker. For more information on becoming a poll worker you can call 910-253-2620, email pollworkers@brunswickcountync.gov or go to the website, www.brunswickcountync.gov/elections .
