Election workers are ground zero for democracy.
No Time to Fail follows Rhode Island's local election administrators and poll workers as they work around the clock to secure the vote for their community during the 2020 election--amidst an onslaught of attacks from a sitting President, and the deadly threat of a global pandemic.
Once invisible to the general public, election administrators are at the center of an ongoing public debate about the integrity of our democracy. No Time to Fail is an invitation to the American electorate to meet the people whose job it is to uphold the scaffolding of our republic and protect free and fair elections in what emerges as an unprecedented voting adventure.
