Jamie's Story
Maricopa County's performance with the tabulation of ballots during the 2020 General Election deviated significantly from past elections. Any rationalization to attribute the results to Covid-19 public health mandates could be discredited given that Maricopa County's performance was substandard to the tabulation of results nationwide, which were also operating under Covid-19 public health mandates. The external communications did not adequately address the public's concerns. Attribute 15.02 specifically includes the public as a target audience of external communications.
I directed questions to the Maricopa County Recorder, expecting a response since this is an elected position. I incorrectly assumed that elected officials would be interested in addressing citizen concerns. There was a brief interface between me and the Maricopa County Recorder. However, there was no response to my inquiries. This Green Book Attribute includes the public as an external entity worthy of communication.
