If you can work a full day, 6 a.m. - to 9:30 p.m. with 2 breaks, are a registered California voter, and can pass their brief interview, give this number a call
(510) 272-6971 . It is a paid position.
If you have a car, can lift 30 lbs, can pass their interview, are a registered California voter, and can attend a 2.5 hour class on Monday, they may have positions of Inspector left call the same number (510) 272-6971.
Happy voting, and if you can work, the voters thank you. I got an Inspector position, see you out there.
Update 1 : According to the Registrar of Voters NO optical scanners what so ever will be used in Alameda County.
Update 2 : According to the Registrar of Voters the poll workers are getting older, and can not do the 14 hour day, which is why they had so many cancel their pledges. This situation has existed in the last several elections (3 that I could find online)so, they need to get some new blood in the poll worker line of work. Please step up if you can. Thanks.
