The workday begins at 6:30 AM and ends after the polls close at 8:00 PM, typically inspectors leave the polls anywhere between 8pm and 9pm.

During the day, each poll worker receives a 2-hour break. It is left up to each polling location to divide the breaks up throughout the day.

The Warden oversees the Precinct making sure everything is set up correctly, all regulations are followed, and all materials are returned to City Hall at the end of the day. Inspectors are given direction from the warden the morning of election.
