The Board of Elections is currently looking for Poll Site Inspectors and Managers. This is a great opportunity for folks interested in participating in the political process.

For Primary Elections, Inspectors are paid $100 for working 11:30am - 9:30pm, and Poll Site Managers are paid $130 for 11am - 9:30pm. For the General Election Inspectors are paid $160 (5:30am - 9:30pm) and the Poll Site Managers get $190 (5:00am - 9:30pm).

The trainings will begin in September. You may sign up by calling the Board of Elections at 607-274-5521.
