The county clerk and recorder of a county with fewer than fifteen thousand active electors as of the date of the previous general election shall appoint at least two election judges to serve as judges for each voter service and polling center to perform the designated functions. In each voter service and polling center, notwithstanding any other provision of this article 6 and subject to the availability of election judges who meet the affiliation requirements of section 1-6-109, of the election judges appointed to serve as voter service and polling center judges pursuant to this subsection (1), there must be at least one election judge from each major political party who is not a student election judge.(4)
For nonpartisan elections, the designated election official shall appoint no fewer than two election judges to serve as judges for each voter service and polling center to perform the designated functions.(5)
The designated election official and, for partisan elections, the county clerk and recorder may appoint other election judges as needed to perform duties other than voter service and polling center duties. These duties may include inspecting ballots, duplicating ballots, and counting paper ballots. For partisan elections, if the county clerk and recorder appoints election judges to perform duties other than voter service and polling center duties, the county clerk and recorder shall appoint two election judges to perform such duties. The two election judges so appointed shall not be of the same political affiliation.(8)
Subject to the requirements of this article 6 regarding the number and party affiliation of election judges, the county clerk and recorder or designated election official may allow an election judge to work at a voter service and polling center for a shift lasting less than an entire day; except that at least two judges of different affiliations must be present at each voter service and polling center at all times.
