2607 - Inspectors of Election; Organization.

 2607. Inspectors  of  election; organization. Not less than ten days
  prior to each special or annual election, the board of  education  shall
  appoint  for  each  election  district  three  qualified voters residing
  therein to act as inspectors of election in such  election  district  at
  such  election.  The  clerk of the board of education shall give written
  notice of appointment to the persons so appointed. If a person appointed
  an inspector of election refuses to accept such appointment or fails  to
  serve,  the  board  may appoint a qualified voter of the school election
  district to fill the vacancy. Additional  inspectors  of  elections  for
  each  district  may be appointed for one or more of such school election
  districts when, in the opinion of the board, special circumstances exist
  requiring the services of such additional  inspectors.  Such  inspectors
  shall,  before opening the polls in the election district for which they
  are appointed, organize by electing one of their number  as  chairperson
  and  one  as  poll  clerk.  The  chairperson may also appoint one of the
  inspectors as an assistant poll clerk. Each inspector shall receive  for
  his  or  her  services  a  compensation  to  be  fixed  by  the board of
  education, not to exceed the basic compensation paid  to  inspectors  of
  election  at  the preceding general elections, as fixed by the governing
  body of the city in which such  school  district  is  wholly  or  partly
  located,  to be paid out of the school funds in the same manner as other
  claims against the city school district. Notwithstanding  the  foregoing
  provisions  of  this  section,  a  person  seventeen years of age who is
  enrolled in a school district and fulfilling the requirements of section
  thirty-two hundred seven-a of this  chapter  shall  be  eligible  to  be
  appointed  as,  and  to  perform the duties of, an election inspector or
  poll clerk as provided in this article.
