Elections Officials updated at CACEO Conference

December 11, 2008 · Leave a Comment

We’re at the CACEO Conference in Sacramento this week participating in panel discussions and committee roundtables that discuss various issues that we face in Elections.

The agenda? San Mateo County participated in a committee discussion regarding provisional voting on Wednesday.  In San Mateo County, we had about 16,000 provisional voters.  Compare that to Los Angeles County who had over 250,000!  Items discussed included legislative amendment possibilities and security of voter information when observers are present.

On Thursday, county officials will attend a series of lectures that will review various subject such as review of chapter legislation, ballot design, Elections Administration Commission Updates, and audits of poll worker training.

Friday’s agenda includes meetings at Secretary of State Debra Bowen’s office where we will be introduced to Elections Staff and review 2008 SOS outreach activities, legislation, and HAVA.
