Orange County Registrar of Voters Neal Kelley will speak at the April 17 meeting of the Anaheim Chamber of Commerce Legislative Committee Meeting. Kelley serves as the Registrar of Voters for the fifth largest voting jurisdiction in the United States, serving more than 1.6 million registered voters.
He joined the County as Chief Deputy Registrar of Voters in May 2004. Appointed Registrar of Voters in April 2006 by County Executive Officer, Thomas G. Mauk, Kelley has led the Registrar of Voters’ office through the largest cycle of elections in the County’s 123-year history. In his role as the County’s chief election official, he leads an organization responsible for conducting elections, verifying petitions and maintaining voter records. Prior to joining Orange County, Kelley developed and grew several companies of his own, employing hundreds of people from 1989 to 2004. He was also an adjunct professor with Riverside Community College’s Business Administration Department, and served as a police officer in Southern California during the mid 1980’s.
In 2009 Kelley earned professional election certification through the national Election Center and Auburn University as a Certified Elections and Registration Administrator (CERA). He has been the recipient of several awards for election administration, including recognition from the California State Association of Counties, the Election Center and the National Association of Counties.
Mr. Kelley will be joining us to talk about the County of Orange’s elections and registrar operations, describe how elections are planned and conducted and give us a behind the scenes look at recent elections conducted in Orange County, as well as efforts to boost turnout among registered voters and increase voter registration among eligible citizens. Please plan to join us for this informative meeting.
We will also be looking at several very important pieces of legislation pending in Sacramento and Washington, D.C. and taking positions on legislation we have been tracking in the 2015 legislative session.
