They set aside their differences for a greater cause, one that protects our country\u2019s fundamental foundation of a safe, secure, and integral election and view it as their civic duty. Their contribution is invaluable.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Election inspectors will be trained to set up a poll site, operate election equipment, and assist voters so that the voting process is carried out smoothly and efficiently.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Inspectors receive a base pay of $240 for working on Election Day, and $112 for attending both election inspector certification and county employee training.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">\u201cBy volunteering to be an election inspector you will see what it takes to hold an election, and fulfill your civic duty to your community,\u201d said Amber Duke, deputy election commissioner (D), adding, \u201cIt\u2019s easy, fun, and you might make some new friends.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">\u201cCitizen involvement is essential to conduct fair and accurate elections, and the success of those elections is dependent on our community members,\u201d said Kelly Johnson, commissioner of elections (R). \u201cLearning the operations and helping in the election process is extremely rewarding, and beneficial not only to your county, but your state and country as well.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">\u201cOur elections work only through the dedication of many amazing individuals,\u201d said James Wahls, commissioner of elections (D). \u201cJoin our team and support the democratic process in this historic presidential election year.\u201d&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">The Board has scheduled 10 election inspector-training classes between June and September, with a capacity of 20 people per class.
