21-2-213. (a) The board of registrars in each county may
appoint deputy registrars to aid them in the discharge of their
duties. The number of deputy registrars appointed to serve shall be
determined by the board of registrars. Such deputy registrars shall
serve without compensation unless the governing authority of the
county, by resolution, authorizes compensation. In appointing
deputy registrars, the registrars shall select persons who are
reasonably representative of a cross section of significantly
identifiable groups of the communities or areas where they are to
serve. (b) The board of
registrars in each county may hire clerical help to assist them in
their duties if the compensation required therefor has been first
approved by the governing authority of the county. Such additional
clerks shall be eligible to be appointed as deputy registrars for
the purpose of registering voters and performing other duties as
may be required, but it shall not be necessary for such clerks to
be electors of the county in which employed. (c) In every county wherein the registrars do
not maintain an office which is open and staffed during regular
business hours, the registrars shall designate and appoint as chief
deputy registrar a full-time county officer or employee for the
purpose of registering eligible electors and performing other
duties as may be required by the board of registrars. The governing
authority of the county shall provide for the compensation of the
chief deputy registrar in an amount not less than $293.29 per
month. The name, business address, telephone number, and any other
pertinent information relative to the chief deputy registrar shall
be forwarded by the registrars to the Secretary of
Statés
office, where such information shall be maintained on file.
