^{PRESS RELEASE}

soon as possible, but no later than February 1, 2024. 

Siskiyou County Clerk Laura Bynum is seeking interested volunteers to serve as Election Observers for the March 5, 2024 Presidential Primary Election.  The purpose of the Siskiyou County Election Observer Program is to provide an avenue of public observation of and input into the election process.  Although being a volunteer observer does involve a time commitment, it is an educational, informative and rewarding experience and supports Mrs. Bynum’s primary responsibility of insuring the integrity and openness of the election process.

Observers are non-paid volunteers and are afforded the opportunity to monitor the various phases of preparing for the election, Election Day activities, as well as post-election procedures and reporting.

To uphold the integrity of the election, volunteer observers cannot be candidates or personally-related to any candidate running for office on the March 5^th ballot.  If you’re interested in volunteering as an Election Observer, please contact Mrs. Bynum via phone at 530-842-8084 or email at [email protected] as soon as possible, but no later than February 1, 2024.
