Call 1-877-VOTE-COUNT if you experience or observe problems at the polls.

Maryland election watchdog group, SAVEOurVotes.org, with assistance from VotersUnite.org and VoterStory.org, will team up for VoterAction’s “Watch the Vote” project in Maryland’s primary on Tuesday. Watch the Vote was first initiated in 2006 to provide legal and organizational support for citizen led efforts to oversee and document problems in the election process. Voters who experience or observe problems at the polls can call 1-877-VOTE-COUNT toll free to report the problems and get legal advice, if needed, on their voting rights. Daily Voting News, a service provided by VotersUnite.org will be collecting reports from roving reporters and providing up-to-the minute accounts of the situation at the polls.
