PRINCE FREDERICK, Md. – April 9, 2026 – The Calvert County Board of Elections is seeking Election Day Pages.

An Election Day Page is a 14- or 15-year-old student volunteer who assists election judges and voters at the polls on Election Day. Pages serve under the direct supervision of supervisory election judges called chief judges. The Election Day Page program was developed to encourage student involvement and understanding of the democratic process through the participation in elections.

Election Day Pages receive service-learning credit, help voters and are involved in the election process.

Under Maryland law, applicants must meet the following requirements to serve as an Election Day Page:

· Be at least 14 years old or older by Election Day

· Be able to speak, read and write the English language

· Be available to work at least one full four-hour shift on Election Day

· Successfully complete a mandatory training session before Election Day

· Be able to take and subscribe to a written oath

· Be enrolled in a public, private, independent or religious school or be homeschooled

· Apply to the local election office in the applicant’s county of residence

Election Day Pages are selected to serve for each election cycle. Therefore, each student accepting an assignment as a page should be available for both the primary and general elections to be held in a given election year.
