County Clerk voices cost of same day voter registration
Quay County Clerk Ellen White told commissioners that a state law allowing same day voter registration will require more certified staff and equipment, with costs likely high. She noted new rules demand photo ID and a second proof of residence to verify registrations against state databases. White aims to implement same day registration countywide, including San Jon and Forrest, but warned on expenses. The commission also approved the 2018 audit from Carr, Riggs & Ingram, citing asset consistency but rising liabilities due to pension disclosures and reduced state capital grants. Training and IT consulting were suggested.
