He's an election skeptic. And he's in charge of elections in Shasta County

"Curtis has eliminated nine of the vast county's 13 ballot drop boxes, telling The Times he did not trust ballots in the hands of 'little old ladies running all over' to collect them."

"Curtis, a 67-year-old attorney, was appointed by the Shasta County supervisors last April. He lived in Florida then, had no previous ties to the area and had never run an election."

"Do I think ballots were stuffed? Yes. Have I contacted the DOJ? Yes,"

"Curtis has accused his predecessors in the registrar's office, without evidence, of election fraud and has called for federal authorities to raid the office he now runs."

Clint Curtis, the Shasta County registrar of voters, revealed that Riverside County Sheriff Chad Bianco planned to confiscate ballots from a recent election. Curtis has been involved with a citizens group alleging election fraud and has worked to promote election denialism. Critics claim he has disenfranchised voters by eliminating ballot drop boxes and advocating for restrictive voting measures. Curtis has made unsubstantiated claims of election fraud against his predecessors and has contacted federal authorities regarding his office's operations.
