-Elections that can range from the national level to the local special district level (e.g., the Illinois Metropolitan Water Reclamation District)
-Candidates for selected elections (e.g., experience, qualifications, incumbent status, issue stances)
-Elected positions (e.g., What are the roles and responsibilities of the Bergen County Clerk? Am I eligible to run for this position? How would I run for this position?)
-Current office holders (e.g., years in office)
It is important that our team reflects the diversity of the organizations we seek to serve. We strongly encourage women, people of color, LGBTQIA+ people, and those otherwise underrepresented in the technology sector to apply.
