Asian American Legal Defense and Education Fund Seeking Volunteers for Election Exit Poll and Poll Monitoring

During the 2024 General Election, the Asian American Legal Defense and Education Fund (AALDEF) will conduct a nonpartisan multilingual exit poll of Asian American voters to capture their candidate preferences and party enrollment, and to identify important issues for the Asian American community. Since 1988, AALDEF has conducted exit polls of Asian American voters and monitored polls in every major election to provide election protection.

AALDEF is seeking volunteers interested in phone banking or on-the-ground polling in the following states:

Arizona, California, Florida, Georgia, Hawaii, Illinois, Massachusetts, Maryland, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, Nevada, New Jersey, New York, Nevada, Pennsylvania, Texas, Virginia, and Washington

This year, AALDEF will be polling:

  • During Early Voting in late October and early November (specific dates TBA)
  • And on Election Day (Tuesday, November 5)

You do not need to know an Asian language (although helpful) and you do not need to be a lawyer.
