REGISTRAR OF VOTERS TO HIRE 2,000 ELECTION WORKERS

FOR JUNE 7, 2022 STATEWIDE DIRECT PRIMARY ELECTION

SANTA CLARA COUNTY, CALIF – The County of Santa Clara Registrar of Voters’ office is now accepting applications for election workers for the June 7, 2022 Statewide Direct Primary Election.  The 2,000 election workers are needed to assist at the Registrar of Voter’s office and at over 100 Vote Centers located throughout the County.  Bilingual speakers are strongly encouraged to apply.

“Election workers do a tremendous service for their community and for democracy,” said Shannon Bushey, Registrar of Voters.  “There is a sense of accomplishment that comes from providing such a vital function in the election process.”

Election workers play an important role in maintaining a fair and secure election.  All new hires will receive paid, mandatory training classes to ensure elections are administered in accordance with California Elections code.  The classes will be held in-person with proper social distancing.

Various positions are available including Elections Aide, Vote Center Lead, Assistant Trainers, Office Extra Help and Couriers.  Opportunities are also available for volunteers and high school students.  Volunteers will receive a fixed stipend, while high school students may opt for either a stipend or community service credits.

Both English and bilingual speakers are needed at Vote Centers and at the ROV office. “We are fortunate to live in such a diverse ethnic community,” said Bushey.  “It is important that we provide resources and accessibility so that every eligible voter has the opportunity to cast their ballot.”
