Get ready, fellow Democrats!
The 2024 election season just got a whole lot more exciting with Vice President Kamala Harris as our presidential candidate and naming Gov. Tim Walz her Vice President. With her dynamic presence, trailblazing career, and unyielding commitment to justice, Kamala is poised to lead us into a new era of progress and prosperity.
A Trailblazer in Action
Kamala Harris has always been a history-maker. From being the first woman and woman of color to serve as Vice President, her career is filled with groundbreaking achievements. As California's Attorney General and a U.S. Senator, she has fiercely advocated for healthcare reform, criminal justice reform, and climate action. Now, she's ready to take on the biggest role yet!
Energizing the Electorate
Kamala Harris's candidacy is already energizing Democrats across the nation. Her ability to connect with people from all walks of life is unparalleled. Whether it's her infectious enthusiasm or her knack for addressing challenging issues head-on, Harris inspires a new wave of voters to get involved.

Aiken Democrats need Poll Watchers on november 5 & during ea
Being a Poll Watcher
Being a Poll Watcher for the Aiken County Democratic Party is important to assure that every
registered voter can cast their ballot without interference. Your presence at the polling places
makes a difference as we observe the voting process and the activities of other watchers and
observers. This is what Voter Protection is all about. We hope that you will consider being a
Poll Watcher this year for the General Election on Nov. 5 and during Early Voting.
Unfortunately, the potential for others to interfere or be disruptive this year is greater than ever.
Election Day Poll Watchers
As we have done in the past on Election Day, Nov. 5, we will use roving Poll Watchers in teams
of two for half-day shifts. Each team will be given a list of several nearby precincts and will be
asked to visit each one, observe the proceedings, record the number of votes cast, and then
move on to the next one – as long as everything is running smoothly. This year we have 3 new
precincts making 89 for the County, with 75 voting locations.
Early Voting Poll Watchers - Week 1
There will be 4 Early Voting locations in Aiken County:
● The County Building, 1930 University Pkwy,
● Odell Weeks Rec. Center, 1700 Whiskey Rd,
● North Augusta Civic Center, 495 Brookside Ave.,
● Roy Warner Park, 4287 Festival Tr, Wagener.
Each location will be open from 8:30 a.m. and 6:00 p.m. every day, except Sun., Oct. 27. We
ask Early Voting Poll Watchers to sign up for a 3-hour slot from 8:30 a.m. – 11:30 a.m., 11:30
a.m. – 3:00 p.m., or 3:00 p.m. – 6:00 p.m. on any of these days at any of these locations. Not
all shifts have to be filled, but the morning and late afternoon times during the startup and shut
down of the polling locations are the most important.
Early Voting Poll Watchers - Week 2
Can choose three-hour shifts at any of the four Early Voting sites in Aiken County on any of the 12 days of Early Voting. All information in week 1 early voting also pertains to week two.
