How would you like to have a front row seat to democracy in action on the South Coast, and get paid for it? Ventura County has more than 100 openings for temporary elections workers for the upcoming gubernatorial recall election.
The county is hiring Elections Voting Assistants. The jobs run now through
October and include everything from opening and helping to process ballots to answering questions from voters.
Ventura County Clerk-Recorder, Registrar Of Voters Mark Lunn calls it a chance for the public to be a part of the process.
“I’ve been the Registrar since 2010 and I cannot tell you how I feel as I am walking though our office on Election Day, to known that I play a very small part in our democracy,” said Lunn. “That’s what folks will get to see and experience.”
You need to have a driver’s license and be willing to work flexible hours throughout Ventura County to qualify for one of the positions. The jobs pay nearly $22.00 an hour.
