WAUKEGAN, Illinois – Are you looking for a way to help your community and earn some extra spending money? Lake County Clerk Robin O'Connor suggests you sign up to be an election worker for the April 6, 2021, Consolidated Election. Most importantly, your help is needed to maintain the integrity of the voting process.
While working in the county's voting sites, your responsibilities could include verifying voters' identity, issuing ballots, or observing the ballot bins. Some roles would require your assistance in setting up the voting site on election eve.
You must be a Lake County registered voter and enthusiastic about customer service. Bilingual English/Spanish speaking applicants are encouraged to apply. Training classes are taking place February 26 - March 2 and are available at Lake County facilities in Waukegan.
Illinois Department of Public Health safety practices and health standards are in place in all training rooms, Early Voting sites, and Election Day voting sites.
O'Connor explained, "Working in the polls offers citizens a first-hand role in our democracy and ensures that voting does work in our county."
Explore responsibilities and pay rates by visiting ElectionJudge.info, calling 847-377-2408, or e-mailing electionjudge@lakecountyil.gov with your name and contact information.
