Hi, I am Judge of Election, and you are correct. You can’t do both jobs! It is a four year term, and you will have to be available each election day, spring and fall. You will be responsible for any problems that may arise, and also for picking up the ballot box before election, and taking the ballot box, and papers back at the end of election night! You can find people willing to take the extra position, until they are placed on the ballot, and permanently voted in. Only the majority, and minority jobs are voted in, as well as the judge! The two clerks are appointed by either of the inspectors, or the judge! It is not a difficult position. Paperwork is explained in the manual, and can be done throughout the day, until the polls close, and the final tallies can be placed into their correct envelopes!
That information in that reply is from my wife by the way. I personally am not the Judge of Election. I just go to the polls, show my ID like everyone else, and vote. :)
Thank you. You confirmed what I thought. The lady from the County Election Bureau also called. I accepted the Judge’s job (it pays $120 for a very long day but you must provide your own food). It will probably be good experience. We have about 1500 registered voters in our precinct.
