Can I work for Elections New Brunswick?

Yes! 

The returning officer for each electoral district is responsible for hiring all workers needed during an election for their district. Generally workers must be qualified to vote, but 16 and 17 year olds can work at some election jobs. An election officer cannot be a close relative (spouse, parent, child, or brother or sister) of any candidate or candidate’s spouse.

 

Returning officers get the names for potential workers from lists provided by the government party and opposition party in the province. They must ensure there is an equal balance of party representation in the polling stations.

 

If you wish to work during the election, call the office of the party of your choice to be put on their list. Or, after the election is called you can contact the returning offices directly and indicate your willingness to work.
