Just one week after Pinal County elections director resigned citing intimidation, the board of supervisors today voted to place the elections department under the county recorder.
“At this time one of our greatest priorities must be ensuring the residents of Pinal County have safe and secure elections. We must restore confidence in our system and ability to deliver an election where every legal vote is counted and show we have expended every effort to educate our residents on who is eligible to register and how to register and become a voter in Pinal County,” Pinal County Recorder Dana Lewis told the board of supervisors.
