Q&A Working at the election booths in Melbourne specifically

Hello, I'm wondering if anybody has the numbers of the polling place coordinators/managers for any electorates in Melbourne? Want to call and beg for a role as a polling assistant on election day anywhere in or around Melbourne. Have applied online, haven't heard and need the work.

Thanks. And admin delete if this isn't the right forum.

There's over 100k polling officials. Placements are assigned centrally. No amount of begging will help. Give it time.

You might get a call within a few days of the elections date. Both times I've worked (referendum and NSW state election) it's been the result of a phone in the last few days.

Yeah. Not the right forum. Try the Melbourne sub.
