This is happening across the country. Long time R and D election officials fed up with the threats and harassment walking away. All express their love of the work but the risk for themselves & family is too high. It’s sad & dangerous for democracy.

10+ year serving Yavapai county recorder Leslie Hoffman (R) is leaving the job in late July. She cites abuse from the public on election officials as part of the reason she is leaving. The Election Director in Yavapai is also leaving. Yavapai is the GOP heartland of AZ.
