Pollwatcher training next week in Lake County

Training on the rights and limitations of pollwatchers will be offered at 10 a.m. Wednesday, Feb. 26, in the 6th floor conference Room E at the Lake County main courthouse, 18 N. County St., Waukegan.

Pollwatchers are official election process observers in the voting site before, during, and after voting on Election Day. With proper credentials, pollwatchers and candidates may also be present during other election events, including early and nursing home voting, along with vote-by-mail and provisional ballot processing.
