Title: Bilingual Workers Needed for Elections
Topic: Bilingual Election Workers Needed

Discussed by Stan Stanart
with Stanart for Harris County Clerk

There are over twenty-five languages spoken in Harris County. This fact increases the need for bilingual workers at the polls during elections.

Stan Stanart, Chief Election Official and Harris County Clerk, discusses this need, plus other issues surrounding elections. Will you help?

Questions/Issues Discussed:

Should ballots be written in only English? And if not, why not? What do the courts decree?

Currently, in what languages are the Harris County ballots available?

Are bilingual election clerks needed during every Election?

What is the age requirement? NOTE: Students over age 16 can help, too!

Must a worker be registered to vote in order to help? NOTE: This does not apply to students.

How much do clerks get paid to work the polls?

If you would like to work at a location for the upcoming November General Election, or if you know someone who is bilingual and can work, please call the bilingual hotline at: 713.274.9550.
