Minimum Age: 16-year-old high school students.
You must complete training to be a poll worker.
Training Details: In-person training typically lasts 1 hour. Chief election inspectors are required to take 6 hours of training every 2 years. Other training requirements vary by role and jurisdiction – please contact your local election officials for more information.
In most cases, poll workers must be qualified electors of the county in which they serve (i.e., adult U.S. citizens who reside in the county and are not otherwise disqualified to vote).
16 and 17-year-old student poll workers can only work at the polling place serving their residence.
