A recent report by an ad hoc committee indicates that Alameda County's registrar of voters, currently also serving as chief information officer, struggles with the demands of both roles. The committee's findings suggest that maintaining this dual role is negatively impacting the effectiveness of the office, raising concerns about voter confidence. The report is a product of extensive research and collaboration and has prompted calls for the registrar to focus solely on election duties. Upcoming public discussions are encouraged as the registrar prepares to respond.
The performance of the office taken as a whole since the roles were combined suggests that the dual responsibility is on balance a negative rather than a positive, measured by ultimate results.
We spent a ton of time preparing that report; it's a compendium of the work of the groups... that work to make sure that voters have the information they need to vote.
