Poll workers get paid but yeah, they're always the most vulnerable.

I always thank them for their work and time when I vote.

Some really look forward to the work as they're all retired people

But not the monitors? -- nm - JackDawson Jun 23, 06:12 1
- I can only speak about the poll workers. I don't know anything about the monitors who I think are hired by the parties and not the state. -- nm - Krusty without grass Jun 23, 06:15
do they get paid everywhere? -- nm - amanda Jun 23, 06:05 3
- $400-$1,000 for election day in Australia, depending on position. -- nm - mafic Jun 23, 06:31
- My understanding is that they're all paid, in every state. -- nm - Krusty without grass Jun 23, 06:11 1
  - But the pay varies from state to state. In NYC a poll worker is paid $15 an hour. They raised it recently as they're having a hard time - Krusty without grass Jun 23, 06:13
