Precinct Election Officers Needed Statewide
KENTUCKY...
Secretary of State Trey Grayson is encouraging citizens to take an active role in the upcoming general election by signing up to become a precinct election officer. Precinct election officers, or poll workers as they are sometimes called, are still needed in many counties across the state, and now is the time to sign up and participate.
To serve as a precinct election officer, you must be a qualified voter, have not changed your party affiliation one year prior to the appointment, not be a candidate for office during the election year, and shall not be the spouse, parent, brother, sister, or child of a candidate who is to be voted for at the election in the precinct in which the election officer will serve on election day. Voters who will be 18 on or before November 2, 2010 are eligible to serve in the upcoming general election.
Each precinct in the state is required to have four precinct officers serving on the day of the election. Each election officer is paid a minimum of sixty dollars per election, as well as additional payment for mileage and mandatory training.
To sign up to become a precinct election officer or to find out more specific information about election officers in your county, please contact your local county clerk.
