The board reviewed results of a poll-worker survey and agreed to continue providing lunches to poll workers, with staff exploring rotating menu options and expanded choices for the November election.
Staff said they surveyed 261 workers and received 123 responses; roughly 97% of respondents said they order lunch on election day and 78% reported being very or somewhat satisfied with the meal service. Eight respondents (about 6% of respondents) said they were dissatisfied. Common complaints included repetition of the same restaurants and food arriving unappetizing when delivered.
For November, staff recommended continuing with Chick-fil-A because the company can handle the required quantity and delivery logistics. Staff said hot boxed sandwiches are not available in the quantity and delivery mode needed, but Chick-fil-A offers cold wraps (including vegetarian and spicy options) that avoid soggy sandwiches. Staff estimated the wraps would cost about $15 per box, compared with $12–$13 per box for standard Chick-fil-A sandwiches; the higher-cost option would increase the election-day food budget.
Staff recommended using manager-collected orders (Google or Microsoft forms) to aggregate choices and to allow precinct managers to collect and submit poll-worker meal selections before ordering. The board did not take a formal vote; members agreed to continue lunch service and to let staff implement the order and delivery approach for November.
