Summary

The Rules Committee heard an applicant for the Ballot Simplification Committee and, following endorsement from the committee chair and others, moved the nomination to the full Board with recommendation.

At the special Rules Committee meeting, the clerk read Item 1 to consider appointing one member to the Ballot Simplification Committee. The applicant described experience in voter services and as an educator and emphasized voter education and clear ballot language. Betty Packard, chair of the Ballot Simplification Committee, recommended the candidate and noted the committee’s small membership.

Supervisors thanked the applicant and moved the nomination as a committee report to the full Board so the candidate could take a seat once the appointment is formally processed. The committee did not record detailed roll-call votes on this item; the motion to forward the appointment was made and carried without objection.
