Become a poll worker
Description
Election workers are citizens entitled to vote who serve on election boards on election day as election officers or assessors. The election board ensures the proper conduct of the election and the determination of the election result in the electoral district or the determination of the separate postal vote result. Tasks include checking whether eligible voters are at the right polling station, issuing ballot papers, counting votes after polling stations close, and deciding on decisions.
Information can be obtained from the cities and municipalities.
The activity in an election board is an honorary office to which the municipal or city administration appoints; the takeover can only be rejected for important reasons.
For their assignment, the election workers receive an expense allowance and a refreshment allowance.
