Georgia Stand-Up asks volunteers to ‘adopt’ a polling place

If you’ve already voted but still want to get back out among the crowds, Georgia Stand-Up’s presenting you with the opportunity.

The local non-partisan “think and act” tank seeks volunteers to provide assistance, voter protection and refreshments at crowded precincts on what’s expected to be a historic Tuesday.

From the group:

The organization is issuing a region-wide call for non-profits, grassroots organizations, community-based groups, church groups, sororities, fraternities and individuals to adopt a polling precinct with high voter turnout and provide care to the voters at those locations in Clayton, DeKalb, Fulton, and Gwinnett counties. Voter Care, a new component of the organization’s STAND-UP & Vote program, provides voters standing in long lines with pertinent voter information, refreshments, relief from standing in line, and voter protection assistance.
