Here in Guildhall, we pay $10.00 per hour for staffing the polls at 
Australian balloting (and also any paper ballot counting needed on the 
floor) , and a flat fee of $15.00 per person for end-of-the-night vote 
counting.  BCA members DO NOT get paid for attending any BCA meetings; it's 
considered community service.

(Note:  we do, however, provide them with substantial food and drink 
refreshments throughout the day, which I think is important for morale!)

Hello everyone!  This is the first time I've posted on Muninet - I've 
enjoyed
reading all of the postings since I began as Town Clerk of Fairfield in 
March.
Very good resource! My question is this- how many towns pay their election
workers and if so, how much?

Thanks, Amanda
