§  3-404.  Election  inspectors  and poll clerks; designation.  1. The   board of elections of each county shall on or before the  fifteenth  day   of  July  of  each  year select and appoint election inspectors and poll   clerks for each election district therein, and such number  of  election   coordinators as it determines to be necessary, and may thereafter select   and designate election inspectors, poll clerks and election coordinators   to fill any vacancy for an unexpired term.  The term of such designation   shall  be  for  a  term  ending  on  the  fourteenth  day of July of the   following year. If the election  districts  for  a  general  or  special   village  election  conducted  by  the board of elections are coterminous   with the election districts  established  for  general  elections,  such   election  inspectors  and  poll  clerks shall also serve at such village   elections. If the election districts for such a village election are not   so coterminous, the board of elections shall select the  inspectors  and   poll  clerks  to serve in each such village election district from among   the inspectors and poll clerks appointed, pursuant to the provisions  of   this  section,  for  any  election  district  wholly  or  partly in such   village.2. Each political party entitled to representation  on  any  board  of   elections  may,  not  later than the first day of May in each year, file   with the appropriate board of elections, an  original  list  of  persons   recommended  to serve.  Supplemental lists may be filed at the same time   and at any time before the designation is made and certified or  when  a   vacancy exists. All designations shall be made first from those named in   the original list filed if those designated are found qualified.3.  Such  lists  shall be authenticated and filed by the chairman, or,   under his direction by the secretary, of the  county  committee  of  the   party,  except  that in cities other than the city of New York, if there   is a general city committee of such party, such list shall be  filed  by   the chairman or secretary of such city committee.4.  Appointment  of  election  inspectors,  poll  clerks  and election   coordinators shall be made by boards of elections.5. If a political party shall fail to submit a list or the list  shall   be  exhausted, the board of elections shall request from the appropriate   political party an original or supplemental list. If after ten  days  no   list  is  filed  by  that  party,  the  board  of  elections may appoint   qualified persons, enrolled members of the political party  in  default,   to act as election inspectors, poll clerks or election coordinators.6.  If  election  districts  are altered or new districts created, the   board of elections shall have the power to transfer election  inspectors   and poll clerks in such districts; and if vacancies exist as a result of   such  action,  those vacancies shall be filled in the manner provided by   this section.7. Election officers shall be appointed from the lists  submitted,  by   those  members  of  the  board  who  represent the political party which   submitted such lists. If such list is not furnished, the members of  the   board  who represent the political party in default, shall designate the   persons to be appointed as election officers.
