The County Clerk’s office runs every election in Jefferson County. If you care about who your elected officials are, then you should care about who runs the elections. 

 

My focus: Secure elections run by people of high integrity. 

 

Every voter, no matter the party, deserves confidence that their vote is counted accurately and fairly. While I would prefer hand counting ballots, because nothing is more transparent than counting votes in the open, Jefferson County doesn’t currently have the resources to do that efficiently and on time. We will continue to use voting machines, but machines are only as trustworthy as the people running them. Machines don’t replace integrity, they depend on it. That’s why it’s critical to continue to have honest, accountable people at every step of the process. Good systems matter, but good people matter more. We must have election officials who follow the law, apply the rules fairly, and always put the public first.

 

My goal is to make sure every voter knows:
 

Your Vote Matters!

 

Your Vote Will Be Counted!

 

Your Vote Is Protected!

 

Secure Elections Combined with Honest People Create Public Trust
