Shasta County's new elections chief, Clint Curtis, has been appointed but immediately faces scrutiny due to his limited experience and controversial political beliefs surrounding election integrity. Formerly a law attorney, he emphasizes his knowledge of election administration in his application, though he previously worked on challenging election results, including Trump's in 2016. His shifting political affiliations raised eyebrows, as he is registered as both a Democrat and a Republican at different points. Curtis's background includes claims of involvement in vote-rigging software, adding to the doubts among residents and supervisors about his role.
"I have in depth knowledge of every aspect of Election Administrators duties including absentee mail voting, early voting, election day voting, voter registration rolls, accuracy and campaign finance."
"As such, I have in depth knowledge of every aspect of Election Administrators duties including absentee mail voting, early voting, election day voting, voter registration rolls, accuracy and campaign finance," Curtis stated.
"Curtis claimed to have worked on a recount team for Kamala Harris during her first election for California attorney general in 2010 - however, there was no recount for that election."
"Curtis has faced scrutiny for his past job experience, beliefs about election interference, and evolving political affiliation since being appointed less than a week ago."
