Earn $$$, eat pizza during the April Elon Poll

Which Senate candidates have the highest name recognition? How do North Carolinians view the war in Iraq? What percentage of citizens support or oppose raising the tax on a pack of cigarettes?

You can find answers to these and other questions by working as an interviewer for the Elon University Poll. We will be conducting our final poll of the semester from Monday, April 26, through Thursday, April 29. We poll each night from 5 to 9 p.m. in the Powell 213 computer lab.

No experience is necessary. We will train you. Pay is $6 per hour, plus all the pizza you can eat during the dinner break.

Sign-up sheets for each night are now posted outside the Department of Political Science office, Powell 313. Students can sign up for individual nights. We only ask that you commit to working a full four-hour shift on the night for which you’ve signed up. If a sign-up sheet is full, please come any way. If we have empty seats we will gladly accept walk-ins.

Our polling data have been featured in the New York Times and the Washington Post, and on CNN and NBC’s Meet the Press. Come join your classmates in a fun enterprise that brings national recognition to Elon.
