We also had a youth at the booth program that we piloted first in 2017 and reused for this election. It focused on using high school students and university students as election workers.
We didn't do any specific outreach of the kind Dr. Boda mentioned. In fact, our experience was that once the election was called, there were many expressions of interest coming in via our website to our central human resources department and into district offices, once they were open, from people who wanted to work as election workers or as office staff during the pandemic, so we did not have challenges in terms of numbers.
Anecdotally, as I mentioned, I believe the numbers skewed younger in terms of percentages. The challenge was more in trying to hire and train all those staff, especially considering our processes and the timeline. We were training them in smaller groups because they had to be distanced and our proper safety protocols had to be followed in organizing the training of election workers.
