Cities Across Germany Seek Volunteers for February Bundestag Election

Local governments are calling for citizens to serve as election helpers to ensure the smooth execution of the upcoming Bundestag vote.

The Bundestag election is scheduled for February 23, 2025, with municipalities actively recruiting volunteer election helpers.
Volunteers must be at least 18 years old, eligible to vote, and meet residency requirements specific to their city or region.
Election helpers will assist with tasks such as voter eligibility verification, ballot distribution, and vote counting after polls close.
Compensation for volunteers includes an 'Erfrischungsgeld' (refreshment allowance) ranging from €25 to €50, with some cities offering additional perks such as vouchers.
Interested individuals can register online or via email, with some cities also providing training sessions ahead of the election day.
