The Board of Elections has jurisdiction over the following aspects of elections

  • Recruiting, training, supervising and appointing a sufficient number of District Board workers to staff all 365 polling districts in Burlington County
  • Receiving, canvassing and counting paper ballots such as vote-by-mail and provisional ballots
  • Issuing challenger permits and badges to eligible voters
  • Certifying and inspecting polling places for accessibility and compliance with the American with Disabilities Act
  • Maintaining vote-by-mail applications
  • Redistricting of municipalities and elections districts when appropriate
  • Filing maps and the legal boundary descriptions of the election districts with the Attorney General’s Office
  • Legal advertising

Board Workers

People are always needed to work on election day for processing voters who come to the polling place to vote. By law, board workers must be registered to vote and either be Democrat or Republican.

An unaffiliated voter may declare their party and then be eligible to work as a board worker. Training is mandatory and a board worker must be re-certified every 2 years. Board workers are paid for each election day.

To apply, fill out and return the Board Worker Application (PDF) or call the Board of Elections at 609-265-5062 or 609-265-5161.
