To be eligible to serve as an election judge, you must be:
- A U.S. citizen
- A resident of Cook County
- A registered voter
- Able to speak, read and write English
- Of good understanding and capable of performing duties
Candidates running for office and elected political party committeemen are prohibited from serving as election judges.
