County Judge Clay Jenkins: Election Security Review in Dallas County

Ahead of the highly anticipated 2022 midterms, the Dallas County Commissioners unanimously approved funding for a review of the County’s election security measures. The Commissioners, led by NewDEALer Dallas County Judge Clay Jenkins, allocated $50,000 to examine how the county is protecting election workers, officials and ballots. The review comes amidst national concerns about rising threats and aggressive behavior towards nonpartisan election administrators.
