The right of an employee to vote at an election shall be determined by the division as a result of a hearing. However, the division may postpone a ruling on eligibility pending the holding of the election and permit the questioned employees to vote subject to challenge, as provided under § 47:02:02:30, if the division determines this to be appropriate. Under ordinary circumstances, the employees eligible to vote are those on the payroll on the date of the election.
