Why It’s Important to Become a Poll Inspector
- Poll inspectors ensure that the voting process is secure, transparent, and accessible. They verify voter eligibility, manage ballot distribution, and help resolve issues that arise at polling places.
- Ensures Party Representation - In New York State, each polling place is supposed to have bipartisan representation—typically one Democrat and one Republican working each station.
If no Republican (or other minority party member) applies, the Board of Elections will assign a Democrat to fill that role.
- Poll inspectors are compensated for training and for their work on election days.
In New York:
Training pay: typically around $25–$100
(varies by county)
Election day pay: generally $250 to $300+ per day depending on hours and county policies
- Becoming an inspector and help your neighbors vote, maintaining order, and ensuring that everyone plays by the rules.
