As an election judge, I'm getting stressed out about this election. There's going to be a HUGE turnout. I don't have enough clerks. And I'm worried about free-range "poll watchers" who have appointed themselves monitors (we have a process in Texas if you want to become a poll watcher) and haven't bothered to actually go through the steps to be a real poll watcher.
I will be setting up my voting site with preparations on what to do if someone comes in with a gun or if there's a bomb threat. I'll have to talk with the site (it's a senior citizens center) about fire escape routes and then let my clerks know about emergency procedures.
NOTHING may happen (likeliest scenario) - but I have to plan for the "just in case" option.
I will be SO glad when the election is over.
