Election Observer Training

Election Observer Training

For years, the ACLU has been engaged in election protection efforts, working to ensure easy, fair, and safe access to the ballot box. This year, that work will be more important than ever – and we need your help. Will you join our Election Protection Team? We'll be training election observers virtually on May 13 and in-person in Rapid City on May 17.
