MONTICELLO- The Sullivan County Board of Elections is seeking registered Republican voters to serve as paid election inspectors on Election Day, November 3.
“We have the necessary number of Democratic voters signed up – we need more Republicans in order to properly staff our 33 polling locations in November,” said Pamela Murran, Republican commissioner of the Board of Elections.
Republican inspectors are particularly needed in Callicoon, Fallsburg, Fremont, Neversink, Thompson, and Tusten.
Election inspectors help prepare polling places, set up voting equipment, process voters, assist voters when requested, and close and canvass the polls.
“Election inspectors are a vital part of the democratic process,” said Deanna Senyk, Democratic commissioner of the Board of Elections.
Inspectors must be at least 17 years old and registered to vote in Sullivan County as either a Democrat or Republican. The county provides training and pays $40 for the half-day training class and $300 for a full day of service at a polling location.
