Nobles County accepts $20,000 CTCL grant and approves additional election assistants
Summary
The board accepted a $20,000 Center for Tech & Civic Life grant to add cameras for public viewing of ballot-board activity and approved hiring replacement temporary election assistants for November 2024.
Nobles County officials accepted a $20,000 grant from the Center for Tech & Civic Life to support nonpartisan election administration in 2024, specifically to purchase and install cameras and viewing capabilities focused on ballot-board activities. The board recorded the grant acceptance at its Aug. 20 meeting and voted to accept the award unanimously.
Separately, the board approved hiring replacement temporary election assistants for the November general election after several previously hired temporary staff reported limited availability due to school and college schedules. The meeting minutes state the county originally hired six temporary assistants for the primary and will replace those unavailable for November to maintain staffing for election operations.
