Northampton County Elections Office is accepting student poll worker applications for the upcoming Primary Election on Tuesday, April 23rd, and General Election on Tuesday, November 5th.

The PA Election Code permits high school students 17 years of age or older to serve at the polls in specific capacities. Students must live in Northampton County and obtain permission from their principal and parent/guardian to serve as poll workers.

Student poll workers must attend mandatory training prior to the Primary Election and are paid for their training time and work on Election Day. Northampton County student poll workers are paid $175 for serving all of Election Day. Election Day hours are from 6:30 a.m. until after the polls close at 8 p.m.

Any 17-year-old or older high student interested in becoming a poll worker should complete this form and email it to the Northampton County Elections Office at election@norcopa.gov.
