The non-profit, non-partisan group, Common Cause New Mexico, is seeking volunteers to monitor polling places and assist voters who may face snafus, confusion, misinformation, intimidation or other obstacles to casting their vote in the June 4 primary election.
Common Cause New Mexico has been running an election protection program since 2008 to make sure that every eligible New Mexico voter who wants to vote can and that every vote is counted accurately. The program is not affiliated with any party, candidate or issue campaign.
Common Cause trains volunteers who are stationed at polling places and equipped with resources that voters need to safely cast their ballots, including a hotline number staffed by trained legal professionals.
