Help Wanted – Ballot Drop Box Lockers

The Registrar of Voters is looking for County employees who can lock the official ballot drop boxes when voting officially ends at 8 p.m. on election night, Nov. 5.

Voters who are still in line at that time can cast their ballot, but then the mail-in ballot drop boxes must be locked.

 A mandatory hour-long training is required for this role. There are three training sessions to choose from, all on Nov. 2. They’ll take place in Chambers at the County Operations Center, Building 5520.  

  • Saturday, Nov. 2 from 9 to 10 a.m.

  • Saturday, Nov. 2 from 2 to 3 p.m.

  • Saturday, Nov. 2 from 6 to 7 p.m.
