The county is looking to fill between 250 and 300 positions between now and early May.

You can expect to earn $200 for working Election Day.

KX News spoke with the county’s head of elections who told us they’re looking for reliable people, with a passion for politics.

“Some of them come out very surprised that they enjoy it as much as they do, it’s a long day but, they have a lot of fun and they really enjoy the process,” said Erika White, Burleigh County Election Manager.
