Overview State Statute requires that Election Judges for precincts in a municipality be appointed and their wages be fixed by the governing body of the municipality. State Statute also requires that a balance of major parties be represented in all partisan elections. The Chair Judges have served as election judges previously and have been chosen for their experience. In most cases they have submitted the names of those whom they will work with. Training is provided for all appointed election judges. . The number of judges posted in each polling place is determined by the number of registered voters in the precinct and the history of new registrations in the precinct. State Statutes require a minimum of four judges in precincts where the ballot scanning machine is being used. Living Waters was combined last year with Blake School. Because of the size and newness of the situation, I have put eight election Judges in that precinct. The wage is the same as the Primary Election. Supportin!:l Documents .
