This job posting applies to these Elections. In addition to working those days, Election Judge training (paid) is required prior to working in a precinct on Election Day. Multiple training sessions will be offered in June/July.
Essential Job Functions
Election Judges and Student Election Judges are responsible for the administration of election procedures in each precinct on each Election Day. Serving as a Student Election Judge is an opportunity to give back to the community.
Throughout each election day you will perform all of the following activities:
  • Prepare the polling location for voting activities. (Set up equipment and voting materials.)
  • Be a Greeter Judge. (Greet voters and verify polling location.)
  • Be a Register/Registration Judge. (Check-In Registered Voters and Register New Voters on the iPad ePollbook.)
  • Be a Ballot Judge. (Demonstrate how to mark a ballot and provide ballots to voters.)

Supplemental Information
16 and 17-year old students can work as Student Election Judges, receive training, and be paid for their work. In 2026, Student Election Judges will be paid a rate of $14.00 per hour.
Student Election Judges perform the majority of the same duties as Election Judges with a few exceptions. Student Election Judges will not be asked to work past 10:00 p.m., will not decalre a party affiliation, and will not be assigned tasks that require party affiliation. Student Election Judges are required to attend and complete the same training as Election Judges.
To qualify to be a Student Election Judge, you must be 16 or 17 on or before the specific Election Day you work, be a U.S. citizen in good academic standing at a Minnesota high school (or home schooled), and provide the City with written permission from your parents and your school. 18 Year old students must also provide the City with written approval from their school - the form is provided by either the City Clerk or the School.
All Election Judges including Student Election Judges are required to attend a state-mandated, three-hour training class. Several training sessions will be conducted by City elections staff at City Hall during the day and in the evening. The City Clerk will notify hired Student Election Juges of the dates and times for training.
The quantity of Election Judges and Student Election Judges staffed in each precinct depends upon the needs of each election.
