The heart and soul of our elections are the poll workers that run the precincts in Duval County.
The value of their work is often overlooked by the voters because when things go very smoothly, poll workers are hardly even noticed. Poll workers are patriotic and show great respect for the election process. They take pride in their work and are focused on the protection of every citizen’s right to vote.
We are always looking for poll workers to work with us to ensure fair, accurate and accessible elections. We especially need bilingual poll workers. We also invite 16- and 17-year-old high school students who are pre-registered to vote to join us as poll workers.
