Italian municipal election official recruitment

Overview

Various Italian municipalities, including Riccione, Oristano, Licata, and Altopascio, have initiated the process of recruiting citizens to serve as polling station officials. Applications are being accepted for roles such as polling station presidents and scrutineers. For many locations, the deadline to apply for presidency is October 31. Requirements generally include being a registered voter and holding at least a high school diploma.

Eligibility is subject to specific restrictions; certain groups, such as active military personnel, municipal employees in electoral offices, and candidates running in the elections, are excluded. Additionally, individuals over the age of 75 are ineligible for these roles in several jurisdictions.

Recent recruitment efforts have expanded to include Usmate Velate and Reggio Emilia. In Usmate Velate, the application deadline is October 31, 2026, with candidates required to be Italian citizens aged 18 to 75. Ineligible professions include employees of the Ministry of the Interior, postal services, and the armed forces. In Reggio Emilia, the process is managed online via SPID or CIE, with a presidency deadline of October 31 and a scrutineer deadline of November 30.

In Diano Marina, applications for polling station presidents are due by October 31, 2026, while scrutineer applications are due by November 30, 2026. Meanwhile, the municipality of Monza has proposed a reorganization of its electoral sections. This plan involves dividing the territory into 110 sections and updating voter assignments, with an expected total of 101,983 assigned voters. A key part of Monza’s revision is improving accessibility by moving polling stations to ground floors in schools.
