I had the great opportunity of spending a large portion of the week in Orlando at the Florida Supervisor of Elections Conference.
I was honored to be a part of a panel on best practices for ballot verification and to receive my certification for completing all the courses to become a Master Certified Florida Elections Professional. I always learn so much when we come together to share our best practices and learn about legislative changes that will impact our offices. I am grateful to be a part of this association and work with so many experts in the field of elections who share the same sense of responsibility to our voters to ensure that we hold the best elections possible.
