National and state Republican Party officials are slowly revving up recruitment and plans for what they say will be an “unprecedented” Election Day army of 100,000 poll workers, monitors and lawyers. A Republican National Committee official told NBC News that the organization has already recruited “tens of thousands” of people to serve in these roles and has hired paid election integrity directors in 13 states, including in key battlegrounds, to oversee volunteers.

In early May, the RNC told donors they were implementing a full-time, permanent Election Integrity Department, boasting of going to court to defend election restrictions, like voter ID, that had been implemented by Republican legislatures around the country in recent years. As for its army of volunteers, Republican officials in many of the seven states the RNC is targeting remained mostly vague on recruiting progress for volunteers and on what specific duties they would be dispatched to do.
