(1) The designated election official shall appoint at least one election judge in each voter service and polling center as supervisor judge. To the extent possible, supervisor judges must be from a major political party, and if more than one supervisor judge is serving at a voter service and polling center, the judges must be of different political party affiliations. The designated election official shall notify the supervisor judge of the appointment. (2) For partisan elections, each major political party is entitled to one-half of the total number of supervisor judges appointed. If an odd number of supervisor judges is appointed, the county clerk and recorder shall determine which major political party is entitled to the one extra supervisor judge. The county clerk and recorder makes this determination by the mutual agreement of the two major political parties or, if the two major political parties cannot agree, by lot. (3) Prior to the election, the supervisor judge shall attend a special school of instruction held by the designated election official. (4) (a) The supervisor judge shall coordinate the conduct of the election in the polling location. For nonpartisan elections, the supervisor judge's responsibilities include receiving election supplies and equipment from the designated election official; delivering election supplies and equipment to the polling location, and returning all election supplies, election equipment, and ballots to the designated election official once the election is concluded. (b) For partisan elections, the county clerk and recorder may deputize a courier to return the election supplies, election equipment, and ballots to the county clerk and recorder once the election is concluded. If the county clerk and recorder does not deputize a courier, the supervisor judge and a second election judge from the voter service and polling center shall return the election supplies, election equipment, and the ballots to the county clerk and recorder. The second election judge is selected by the election judges in the voter service and polling center other than the supervisor judge and must have a political affiliation different than the supervisor judge.
