Incognito Dec 2019 6:19am, 12 Dec 2019 140 posts	0 Incognito Today marks the 3rd annual Poll Clerk Appreciation Day, a holiday first celebrated in May 2019. I started the event while 'working' as a Poll Clerk with the aim of getting my friends to bring cakes with them to the Polling Station. I'm not working at a polling station today, but in the spirt of the occasion I do plan to visit my former co-workers with some cakes later today. I noticed in the politics thread there are quite a few Fetchies working in Polling Stations today, and whilst I can't take them all cake I hope this post will serve as a token of my gratitude.
