@shakeshack @PizzaToThePolls @UberEats I just got my poll worker badge today but am working the polls from 5 am to 8+ pm and so can't physically get to Shake Shack for this (we cannot leave the polls). I assume many poll workers are in the same boat. Would you consider extending this by a day or deliver?

[Roots & Sky @Rngolela]

@Eileen1145 @Chopt Yes, as a pollworker we have to be at the polls at 5 am and get off at 8 or 9 pm at the earliest, and cannot leave our polling station for that time. How would we possibly be able to benefit from this?
