Officer of Elections
Recruitment Form

Election officers are essential to ensuring smooth and proper operations at the polls on election day.   On election day, Officers of Elections and poll workers are the people who ensure the conduct of fair and accurate elections. They prepare the precinct by setting up voting equipment, greeting voters, verify registrations and providing voters with appropriate ballots. At the end of the day,  the officers close the precinct, count the votes and prepare election materials for delivery or actually deliver the material to the Elections office.  Many people find it a rewarding experience and return year after year to serve. We encourage you to become an Officer of Elections in Virginia.
