The pay will be $10 for attending a training meeting Oct. 25 and $90 for working Election Day. For more information, call the clerk's office, 451-3481.

Sherrie Swensen, Salt Lake County clerk, said her office is hiring people to help voters at polling locations and calling them information election judges. She said the county plans to have one judge at each of the 376 polling locations. Swensen said the county also has had a large number of requests for absentee ballots. "We've had as many request them at the beginning as we normally have at the end."

On Oct. 22 and 25, the Davis County clerk's office will operate satellite voter registration offices. They will be located in Kaysville at Bowman's store, at Dan's in Layton, the South Branch Library in Bountiful, the Layton and Syracuse branch libraries, Dick's markets in Bountiful and Centerville, Layton Hills Mall, Macey's Food and Winegar's in Clearfield. Hours will be from 8 a.m.-8 p.m.
