  <title><![CDATA[McCamish Pavilion to Serve as Election Polling Location]]></title>
  <body><![CDATA[<p>Georgia Tech&rsquo;s McCamish Pavilion will serve as an early voting site for all residents of Fulton County Oct. 21&ndash;23. The venue will also serve as a polling precinct for voters <em>assigned to this precinct</em> on Election Day, Nov. 3. Voters assigned to vote at McCamish on election day will likely include Georgia Tech students who registered to vote using their campus address. <strong><a href="https://ramblinwreck.com/mccamish-pavilion-to-serve-as-election-polling-location/">More information is available from Georgia Tech Athletics.</a></strong></p>

<p>Georgia Tech student leaders are also recruiting poll workers for the location. Those interested in being a poll worker can watch a brief <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nOF9v1pfkds">video</a> and sign up <a href="https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSf2uTkAZmoSKnMoKq3U48BryRWJMLCBJvo9x7JcFI20LdI-dw/viewform">here</a>. To volunteer to serve as a nonpartisan Voting Team Captain click <a href="https://gatech.co1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_0vOhiJ50NUNH6Vn">here</a>.</p>

On Tuesday, Sept. 22, the Georgia Tech Voter Engagement Steering Committee will host Your Power to Vote, a town hall discussion on your rights as a voter. The event will feature Kelvin Jones, Fulton County voter education and outreach training officer, and a panel of Georgia Tech participants.

  <!--  Disquisition: it's funny how I write these TODOs and then never
         revisit them. It's as though the act of writing the thing down frees me
         from the responsibility to actually solve the problem. But what can I
         say? There are more problems than there's time to solve.  -->
