INDIANAPOLIS — Election Day poll workers will receive a pay increase for the upcoming 2024 general election, Mayor Hogsett announced Tuesday.

Pay for Election Day clerks will increase from $100 to $180 per day, while pay for Election Day inspectors will increase from $200 to $240 per day.

“Free and fair elections are the cornerstone of our democracy, and they would not be possible without the election workers who dedicate their time to working in Marion County voting centers,” said Mayor Hogsett.

Marion County election workers must meet the following requirements:

• Be a registered Marion County voter (exception: high school students).
• Inspectors must undergo training provided by the Electoral Council.
• Clerks are strongly encouraged to complete training, as some procedures may change between elections.
• Work a full day, from setup to teardown, as an inspector or Election Day clerk. Half-day shifts are available for Clerks only.
