It’s part of the pre-game prep in Jamie Doss’s world – getting staff and volunteers ready for another election.

August 4th, Kansans will head to the polls to pick not only candidates to run in November, but decide how they want judges on the Kansas Supreme Court to be selected. Doss is the Saline County Clerk and Elections Officer and says they will be ready for the task.

She joined in on the KSAL Morning News Extra with a look at the process and the surprising number of volunteers it takes.

Doss added they are looking for around 150 dedicated community members from all backgrounds to help make elections run smoothly, including:

Retirees
College Students
High School Students
First-Time Workers
Bilingual Residents
Community Volunteers

No experience? No problem, training is provided. Serve your community, gain valuable experience, and be part of democracy in action.

Compensation:

Clerks & Judges: $150 + $25 training
Supervising Judge: $200 + $25 training
Advance voting/office: $10/hour

All election workers must attend training to be qualified.
