Why not? Provided they aren’t running themselves, and it isn’t against state election statues, how are they any different than other poll workers who have specific political affiliations?

I wish more people would work the polls, & then maybe there would be less ranting about voter fraud. They need to see the security systems in place.
I agree!
I posted about this experience elsewhere. I am nearly 70 but I volunteered for the first time in my life, I worked four early voting days and the general election on November 3rd.
I will never again question the process, they are locked down tight. And if anyone says "whatabout those incidents we hear about on the news?" you can tell them they were on the news because the system works, and perpetrators were caught! ... by the people working the elections.
Americans take a lot of personal pride in our free elections, you can see it in the dogged persistence of those volunteers who work 14 hours straight without leaving the building. These people swear an oath to our republic and the state and federal constitutions.
It's one of those unsung duties, like jury service, which we rely on to keep our republic strong and secure, These deserve more attention and greater participation from the general public. There would be less complaining and more inspiration and pride if we all did more of that from our hearts.
