Become a poll worker

I'M INTERESTED

Serving as a poll worker is a meaningful way to ensure St. Croix County elections are fair and accessible. Will you help?

Check-In Voters

Confirm voters are registered, have valid ID, and are at the correct polling location.
Provide Direction

Instruct voters on how to properly complete their ballots and deposit them into the voting machine.
Process Ballots

Confirm absentee ballots have been properly completed and feed them into the voting machine, ensuring every vote is counted.

I first volunteered to be a poll worker in 2020 when I read that Covid was driving many poll workers away and causing a shortage. Three years later I’m still volunteering because it is an easy and simple way to serve the community and see for yourself how elections work.

My experience being an actual part of democracy has been very rewarding, and (for the most part) voters are very appreciative and thankful.
