The Board of Elections requests that the respective party leaderships — Democratic, Republican, ICM — and Independent candidates taking part in the 2018 General Election submit a list of names for poll watchers and specify the polling place the poll watcher will be assigned.

For example, in the St. Croix District, there are 13 polling precincts; therefore, specify up to three poll watchers per precinct.

Please note: A candidate and political party may appoint three watchers in each polling place, but only one can remain inside a polling place at a given time.

The list of poll watchers must be submitted no later than noon on Wednesday, Oct. 10. Send the list to Acting Deputy Supervisor Terrell Alexandre (District of St. Croix) via email: terrell.alexandre@boel.vi.gov. If further clarification is needed, contact Alexandre by email or at 773-1021.

The following is a listing of polling places in the district. Only territorial candidates (gubernatorial, senatorial-at-large and territorial committee- at-large can submit listings for the two districts.
