How bipartisan observers help keep elections secure

The election process is being carefully watched. From security
cameras at county offices to candidates monitoring polling places,
there are eyes and ears on alert to ensure the safety of the voting
process. But another group plays a key role in ensuring the
integrity of the vote: election observers. With less than a week
before the 2024 primary election in Arizona, these observers are
already at work. They're watching as early ballots are being
processed at county election offices. These volunteers are often
overlooked on election day, but they are an important part of the
voting process. This week on Election Dissection, an elections
series of The Gaggle podcast by The Arizona Republic and
azcentral.com, hosts Mary Jo Pitzl and Sasha
Hupka talk with some people who watch democracy in process.
Jeff and Robin Greeson have been observers with the Maricopa County
Democratic Party since 2018. They tell Election Dissection how the
job really works and lessons they've learned over the past few
years. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit
