Alachua County Supervisor of Elections Office to host election worker orientations in preparation for the 2024 election cycle

Press release from Alachua County Supervisor of Elections

ALACHUA COUNTY, Fla. — With the 2024 Presidential Election cycle beginning in less than a year, the Alachua County Supervisor of Elections is recruiting election workers to serve their community at county polling places and early voting locations.

The office will host election worker orientation sessions this September, October, and November. Space is limited, so we are seeking new election workers for these sessions.

Orientation sessions, which are open to anyone interested in serving as an election worker, will be held on September 21 from 10 a.m. to 12 p.m., October 3 from 2 p.m. to 4 p.m., and November 1 from 10 a.m. to 12 p.m. All sessions will be held on the first floor of the Josiah T. Walls Building, which is located in Gainesville at 515 N. Main St.

Attendees will learn what being an election worker involves, including the responsibilities for each position (clerk, assistant clerk, deputy, etc.). Additionally, they will be provided an overview of elections equipment.

All orientation sessions will cover the same information, so it is only necessary to attend one. Prospective election workers will not be paid for attending orientation, but they are paid for attending trainings and working on Election Day.

People interested in attending should RSVP by completing this form (https://form.jotform.com/231384919181057) or by emailing Yvette Carreras at ycarreras@alachuacounty.us.
