County Clerk Stephen Graham reported that early voting opened April 27 and runs through May 15, with absentee ballot requests due by May 8. "As of the meeting, 509 absentee ballots had been sent and 144 returned," Graham said. He noted that because he is on the ballot this election he stepped back from direct involvement in ballot handling and commended Elections Supervisor Hayleigh Simpson for managing election administration.
Graham also presented a 14‑month performance overview of the Recorder's Office following the transition to the Tyler recording software platform. Key metrics included nearly 4,000 e‑recordings processed with a median turnaround of under one hour and a 98.5% same‑day completion rate. He described anti‑fraud measures such as document watermarking and a free fraud notify alert service and noted staff workload pressures observed in staff self‑reporting.
