Oh there was an NPR episode about this last time and they had a hell of a fun time. They get a coffee, sit in their car, take notes and pass it on. Super important. Plus they sometimes get to harass people who are J walking and stuff. I know like 3 retired dudes living around me who would instantly feel honored to do it, and I live in a firmly blue state.
So many old dudes with nothing to do, is what I learned.
A legit poll watcher is designated by a campaign and needs proof of their appointment. They are supposed to be inside the polling place (or near it). Those people just sound like assholes
