Appointments & Elections

Current Openings: Election Official

More information below

Interested in becoming an official for your community? Check back for current openings to submit your application for candidacy.  

To be a poll worker, a person must:

  • Be a qualified elector of the county in which the municipality is located (i.e., an adult citizen of the United States who has resided in the election district for 28 consecutive days and is not otherwise disqualified to vote)

  • Be able to read and write fluently in the English language

  • NOT be a candidate for any office to be voted on at the polling place at that election.

Poll workers do everything from check-in voters, help people register to vote, check photo IDs and process absentee ballots. Your local clerk will provide you with training prior to election day for the job you will be doing. This is a great opportunity for high school and college students to get involved with the democratic process!

Town of Oakland offers a stipend for working as an election official.  If you are interested contact your clerk today at clerk@townofoakland-douglas.wi.gov or 715-399-0206
