The Westchester County Board of Elections relies on an election-day workforce of more than 4,000 registered Westchester voters. Ideally, each polling place has an equal number of workers representing the Democratic and Republican parties to provide the front-line checks-and-balances that protect voting rights. These workers are your neighbors; their service is vital to fair elections.
There are two more countywide elections in 2024 – a Primary on June 25th and a General on November 5th and hundreds of trained poll workers are still needed. True, it is a long day: set-up begins at 5 AM and the day ends about 30 minutes after the polls close at 9 PM. However, you would be joining your neighbors in performing an invaluable civic duty. Won’t you, or a member of your family, or a friend, consider providing this essential service to our democracy?
The Board provides training on-line and in-person and pay stipends of $25 for each training and $350 for each Election Day. Help us protect the vote!
