Help Wanted - Ballot Drop Box Lockers

/

Now here’s an unusual job. The Registrar of Voters is looking for County employees who can lock the official ballot drop boxes on election night, March 5.

Voting for the Presidential Primary Election ends at 8 p.m. Voters who are still in line can cast their ballot, but then the mail-in ballot drop boxes must be locked.   

And that’s where you can come in. You could get paid to serve on a two-person ballot box locking team.

An hour-long training is involved. You must attend one of two training sessions. They’ll take place at the campus chambers, building 5520, at the County Operations Center.  

  • Saturday, March 2 from 2 to 3 p.m.

    or

  • Monday, March 4 from 7 to 8 p.m.

Here is the schedule for election night, March 5.

  • 6:30 p.m. – Teams pick up locking supplies at a regional supply distribution site.

  • 7:15 p.m. – Teams arrive at their assigned ballot drop box location.

  • 8 p.m. – Teams lock assigned ballot box after last voter in line at 8 p.m. drops off ballot.

  • 8:30 p.m. – Teams return supplies to the supply distribution site.

One team member will drive their own vehicle; the other will be a passenger.

Pay for election night:    

  • Drivers - $115  

  • Passengers - $75                            

If you’re interested, fill out the survey and submit it by March 2.
