PollWatchUSA is a non-partisan way to crowd source reporting problems at the polls on election day.
The goal is to facilitate solving poll problems as quickly as possible so that any voter who wants to vote is able to do so easily.
It is a joint project of Common Cause/NY, Reboot and Websa and won first prize at the Civic Engagement Hackathon sponsored by the Personal Democracy Forum in June, 2012.
The PollWatchUSA tool allows anyone with a smart phone to act as a poll monitor.
In the event of an emergency, the application offers the option to connect voters to the Common Cause election protection hotline, where they can receive immediate assistance.

There was a contest for a "I Voted" sticker design. This won and I was one of the voters for it.
NYC Wins When Everyone Can Vote!
