    I applied when this one was advertised. Got an autoreply, and not a word after that. Same for friends.

    Thanks for the responses. Where would you usually see it advertised. Is it just advertised in the paper? I tried googling it but couldnt find anything.

    I emailed my local returning officer (just googled that) and they sent me out forms to fill out, the form had sections for polling clerk, ballot counting etc.
