Here are the top three stories in Cincinnati today:

1. The Hamilton County Board of Elections is still looking for poll operators for Nov. 8. The poll worker shortage is partly due to the need of aging poll workers to stay inside and away from COVID-19 spread. Hamilton County needs approximately 300 poll workers and will pay $181.50 for the position. (Cincinnati CityBeat)
2. Cincinnati police are asking for the public's help in identifying a man who exposed himself to three children on East Liberty Street. The children, ages five, eight, and 10, were sitting in their mother's van at a Shell Gas Station while their mother paid for gas. Police describe the man as Black, between the age of 25-35, and around 170 pounds. (WLWT Cincinnati)
3. Four local school districts are participating in a program to serve locally-sourced meals this week as part of Farm to School Month. The goal of the program is to educate students about the local food ecosystem as well as to support small good growers. Cincinnati Public Schools, Milford Exempted Village Schools, and West Clermont Local School District will be participating this week. (Spectrum News 1)
