The Northampton County Elections Office is seeking poll workers for the upcoming Municipal General Election on Nov. 4.
Poll workers are needed to check in voters at polling places and set them up with a ballot. At the end of the night, poll workers deliver the returns to county election officials. The county depends on these workers to ensure fair, accurate and legal elections.
Poll workers must attend mandatory training prior to the election and also are paid for their training time and work on Election Day. Northampton County poll workers may earn between $175 and $200 for serving all of Election Day, depending on their assignments and training. Typical Election Day hours are from 6:30 a.m. until after the polls close at 8 p.m. Individuals who bring supplies back to the Government Center receive additional compensation and mileage.
Registered voters interested in becoming poll workers can email the Northampton County Elections Office at election@norcopa.gov or call 610-829-6260.
