City Clerk Workshop: Through the Lens of a Voter - A Closer Look at Elections
Speakers: Orange County Registrar of Voters Neal Kelley / UCLA Political Science Professor Lorrie Frasure-Yokley
Municipal clerks are proficient at the mechanics of a local election. Whether its candidate nominations, campaign filings or certifying results, local elections officials are well versed in the technical aspects of the Elections Code and conducting the election itself. This session, however, will go beyond the technicalities and facilitate an understanding of voter demographics and voter behavior. It is only through this deeper understanding of voting patterns and psychology that we can learn to better serve and engage our residents. Participants will learn how national and state conversations in the elections space affect local elections, why it is important to understand community demographics to fully engage our constituency, and the social responsibility of the local elections official on the front lines of this democratic process.
Date/Time: Wednesday, October 16, 2019, 9 a.m. – 1 p.m.
Location: Hyatt Regency Long Beach (Adjacent to Convention Center)
Cost: $150 (Includes Lunch)
Points: 1 CMC/MMC Point
Online registration available on the League of California Cities website.
