Clay Elections wins Clearinghouse Award for outstanding innovations

CLAY COUNTY – Supervisor of Elections Chris H. Chambless is excited to announce that Clay County Elections Office has been named a 2021 Clearinghouse Award winner in the category of Outstanding Innovations in Elections for the Elections Expo, a behind-the-scenes look at the Florida elections process which highlighted the multiple safeguards in place to ensure every election is secure and accurate.

The Clearinghouse Awards, also known as the “Clearie” Awards, are presented annually across the U.S. for best practices in election administration by the U.S. Election Assistance Commission (EAC). Established by the Help America Vote Act of 2002 (HAVA), the EAC is charged with serving as a clearinghouse for election administration information. To further this mission, the EAC launched the Clearies in 2016 to promote best practices in elections and celebrate the accomplishments of election officials.

EAC Commissioner and 2021 Chairman, Donald Palmer said, “Despite ongoing challenges, election officials proved once again that they are some of the greatest civic leaders our nation has to offer. Their adaptability and perseverance allowed millions of voters across the country to successfully cast their votes in the 2021 elections.”
