If I'm working the poll, how do I vote? Can I leave to vote if I'm not working at my precinct?

No. Poll officials are required to vote prior to Election Day. You may vote by mail up to 45 days prior to the election or you may vote advance in person up to 21 days before the election. Once you've been sworn in at the polling place, you are not allowed to leave until all Election Day activities have been completed.
