Bill > HB683

This bill designates March 16th of each year as "Election Judges and Poll Workers Appreciation Day" in Missouri, recognizing the critical role that election judges and poll workers play in the democratic process. The bill amends Missouri state law by adding a new section to Chapter 9, which officially establishes the annual day of recognition. It encourages citizens throughout the state to participate in events and activities that show gratitude to election judges and poll workers, who are essential to ensuring the smooth and fair operation of elections. By creating this designated day, the bill aims to highlight the important contributions of these local election workers who help maintain the integrity of the democratic voting process by staffing polling places, verifying voter eligibility, managing voting equipment, and ensuring that elections are conducted properly and transparently.
