Poll Workers Are Needed in Warren County
The Warren County Board of Elections is working to fill open poll worker positions as the spring primary is around the corner. Historically, over half of poll workers have been 55 years of age or older, and therefore many have chosen to stay home because of the pandemic, sparking a need for more poll workers. Workers are paid for training and for each election day they work.
