"Clint Curtis, the appointed county clerk, is calling for more transparency in elections, proposing to set up cameras to record all election activities to enhance public trust."
"Joanna Francescut, with 17 years of experience, contends that Curtis's claims of improving transparency are based on the groundwork she laid before his appointment."
"Curtis has publicly stated that Francescut 'has no concern for the public at all,' a claim she denies while acknowledging the office's past negative reputation."
