Your website that evaluates the impact of legislative and judicial actions on federal, state, and local levels has determined there has been an increase in the publics interest in how local elections are managed. The website aims to help educate the public about how local elections are run and the jobs and responsibilities related to elections within local governments. Your manager has asked you to write a blog post on the mechanics of running local elections.
Write a 700- to 1,050-word blog post on how elections are run in your local area. Be sure to address the following in your post:
Describe the major job roles that work on local elections within local government. Indicate how these roles interact with state or federal government officials.
Discuss how representatives from the two major political parties interact with local government before, during, and after a local election.
