Linda started with the county in 1989 to help set up the records center. In 1990 she transferred to the Recorder’s Office during the time the clerk and recorder merged to become the Recorder-Clerk.

She also worked with the department to implement the first electronic recording with the Treasurer/Tax Collector.
In 2005 Linda transferred to the Election Department to manage the new voting system and eventually moved into the Assistant Registrar of Voters position. Her duties include preparing calendars, overseeing candidate filing, ballot layout, ballot tabulation systems, and Election Day processes.

He gets permission from facility owners to use their location and surveys each site to ensure they meet the accessibility and disability requirements for our voters.
Ted is also responsible for voter registrations cards, ensuring voters are registered, and electronic records received from state Department of Motor Vehicles.
Ted is married with two kids as well as two grandkids. He is an avid and dangerous tennis player but when he is not running everyone ragged on the tennis court you’ll find him hiking in the El Dorado County forests.
