“I would also like to thank the many employees who work extremely hard to make sure that these elections are run smoothly and with the highest integrity,” Champ said. “Specifically, I would like to acknowledge our district clerk, Pauline Davies, our business office and facilities staff, and our elections workers and inspectors for their incredible efforts.”
