County of Union issued the following announcement on April 14.
Union County reminds residents seeking an opportunity to help during the 2022 election cycle that Governor Phil Murphy signed legislation (A-208) to increase pay for New Jersey’s election workers. The bill increases the compensation of election workers from $200 per day to $300 per day.
Under the former law, election workers were paid $200 per day each time the primary election, the general election, or any special election is held. This increase will assist local election officers by incentivizing residents to serve their communities as poll workers, thereby staffing polling locations at appropriate levels.
Poll workers perform essential services on Election Day, by ensuring every eligible voter is afforded an opportunity to exercise their constitutional right to vote.
