CR 11-086 Appointment of Election Judges for City and School District ElectionSeptember 1, 2011 Council Report 2011-086
APPOINTMENT OF ELECTION JUDGES
FOR 2011 CITY AND SCHOOL DISTRICT ELECTION
Staff recommends approval of the following motion: Move to appoint the attached list
of ersons (Election Judges Appointments - 2011 ) to serve as Election Judges for the
City and School District Election to be held on November 8, 2011 and set the wage at
$10.00 per hour for Chair Judges and $9.50 per hour for Election Judges and also
appoint all members appointed to the Hennepin County Absentee Ballot Board as
authorized under Minn. Stat. 204B.21, subd. 2 under the direction of the Election
Manaqer to serve as members of the Hopkins Absentee Ballot Board.
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.
• The Chair Judges have served as election judges previously and have been chosen for
their experience. Some of the Chair Judges have been involved in choosing the
precinct team. Training is provided for all appointed election judges.
The Absentee Ballot Board will be accepting, rejecting, duplicating and tabulating the
absentee ballots here at City Hall. In essence, six new precincts are created for the
absentee ballots. They will be tabulated and totaled separately.
Hennepin County will also establish an absentee ballot board. The Hennepin County
Board will process all overseas and military ballots as well as those of Hennepin County
residents that walk into the Center to vote by absentee. Some of those voters will also
be Hopkins residents. By processing these ballots on site, the County will not have to
worry about transporting absentee ballots nor about time constraints.
Supporting Documents
