The Village of Lake Delton is looking for RESPONSIBLE, NONPARTISAN, HARDWORKING people to help with a VERY IMPORTANT part of the Election Process ….. POLL WORKERS!
WHAT ARE POLL WORKERS? Poll workers are local voters, appointed by the Village Board to make up the “ELECTION BOARD” for Village of Lake Delton. They are responsible for the administration of election procedures in the polling place on Election Day. Poll workers are sworn to see that the election process is administered fairly, efficiently, and according to WISCONSIN STATUTES and FEDERAL LAWS.
