Join us for a special viewing of The Officials, a short documentary that sheds light on the vital — and often overlooked — work of election administrators in the United States. The film provides a behind-the-scenes look at election officials across the U.S. preparing for the 2024 elections, highlighting their commitment to their communities and the democratic process in the face of increasing threats and harassment. The film will be followed by a conversation with two local elections officials about pursuing a meaningful career in the election field. Hosted by the Certificate in Election Administration program at the University of Minnesota's Humphrey School.
Panelists: Nicole Conlin, Election Systems Division Manager, Hennepin County Elections
Emily Hunt, Deputy Director of Elections, Minnesota Office of the Secretary of State
