Delaware County Election Help


Friends,

We have many paid and volunteer opportunities regarding the upcoming election this Tuesday, November 2nd 2021, and we would love your great help again in making this election a success!

Our County has an upcoming election on Tuesday, November 2, 2021 and we would love your help with making this election a success!

  • You can sign up for multiple shifts (links below); however, please be mindful of the different start and stop times so we do not have gaps in coverage.
  • You may invite your friends and family to help too! Most roles do not require you to be a County Employee and some roles offer and hourly pay rate!

COVID-19 Precautions

  • All people helping with elections tasks are required to wear masks while working.
  • Hand sanitizer, spray, and wipes are readily available, and we encourage people to use them.
  • With all these precautions and the effort to stay safe, you should be aware that indoor positions are in a shared office space with numerous people coming in and out. If you would be uncomfortable sitting in a cubicle or workspace with numerous other people sharing the floor, this might not be the job for you.

Election Work is Non-Partisan

Delaware County Election Day activities are non-partisan, so we ask that you do not wear clothing, buttons, or face masks advertising a particular party or candidate. We also ask that you moderate your conversations so that we can focus on our service to the County rather than topics that may be perceived as partisan.

You will not be able to work/volunteer on this project if you are an elected official or paid staff member for a candidate, political party, or committee.
