Election Worker Information

The Manchester Registrar of Voters are always looking for good people who care about their community, who want to ensure that each vote counts, and who want each voter to have the best possible voting experience. This is an opportunity to fulfill an important civic duty and earn money at the same time.  We have several election worker positions available for the upcoming election. 

  • Job details: Stipend amount will be based on the position you are placed in.

Hours are 5:15am (promptly at) until the closing of the polls (election ends at 8pm, but workers must remain until the books are complete and the polling location is officially closed by the Moderator).

Training is mandatory (by state statute) prior to Election Day.

  • Requirements: You must be a US Citizen.

You must be 16 years old, and if 18+ you must be a registered voter as well.
