en · 1,894 chars · active
In
districts in which voting machines are to be used, the county
board of elections, or the custodians appointed by them, shall
instruct in the use of the machines, and in their duties in
connection therewith, all judges and inspectors of election and
machine inspectors who are to serve at the primary or election,
and who have not been previously instructed and found qualified,
and they shall give to each judge, inspector and machine
inspector, who has received such instruction and is found
qualified to conduct such primary or election with the voting
machine, a certificate to that effect. For the purpose of giving
such instructions, the county boards shall call such meeting
or meetings of election officers as shall be necessary. Each
judge, inspector and machine inspector shall, upon notice,
attend such meeting or meetings called for his instruction and
receive such instruction as shall be necessary for the proper
conduct of the primary or election with voting machines, and,
as compensation for the time spent in receiving such
instruction, each judge, inspector and machine inspector who
shall qualify for and serve at such primary or election, shall
receive the sum of five ($5.00) dollars, to be paid to him at
the same time and in the same manner as compensation is paid
to him for his services on election day. No judge, inspector
or machine inspector shall serve at any primary or election at
which a voting machine is used, unless he shall have received
such instructions, shall have been found qualified to perform
his duties in connection with the machine, and shall have
received a certificate to that effect from the county board or
one of the custodians appointed by them: Provided, however,
That this shall not prevent the appointment of a judge or
inspector of election or machine inspector to fill a vacancy
arising on the day of election or on the preceding day.
