City of Farmington Election Inspector Application can be found PDFhere.

Assignment and Training Information

  • Your name will be placed on our Inspector list.  The City cannot promise that you will work each and every election. Inspectors are assigned based on the type of election and the number of inspectors needed to administer the election. 
  • Prior to each election, invitation to work and assignment notification will be sent via email.  Inspectors are also needed for the substitute inspector list, so even if you are not assigned to an election you might still be called on to work.
  • Training is provided.  Inspectors are paid $15 to attend training.
