CLINTON TOWNSHIP BOARD BUYS ELECTION TECH BY DEAN VAGLIA

CLINTON TOWNSHIP — The topic of elections was high on the minds of Clinton Township trustees in early October, especially with the Board of Trustees voting to buy new election software and equipment at

its Oct. 2 meeting. Developed by Minnesota-based Modus Elections Software, the products purchased by the township are focused on streamlining and easing the setup and tracking of election workers and equipment. “Elections planning and implementation has always been a huge undertak-

ing. However, with the implementation of Proposition 2018-3 and 2022-2, execution of elections is an even grander operation,” Township Clerk Kim Meltzer said. “Clinton Township is the largest township in the state of Michigan and our (number of ) registered voters exceeds 81,000. In fact, Clinton Township is more populated than 62 of the

83 Michigan counties. Only some of the list of responsibilities include scheduling workers, provide interactive training, mail, email and text communication for our 400-plus workers; establish and monitor political party balance, payroll, inventory management for equipment and supplies; coordination See ELECTION on page 12A
