Cari-Ann Burgess, the interim registrar of voters for Washoe County, Nevada, has publicly stated that she was forced out of her position just weeks before the presidential election, countering the county's claim that she requested medical leave due to stress. Burgess alleges she faced pressure from the county manager's office regarding personnel changes and was compelled to submit a leave request against her wishes. Her abrupt departure is indicative of ongoing turmoil in a county marked by election-related conspiracy theories and high turnover among election officials. Despite being praised for her work just days prior, Burgess now considers legal action and has hired a lawyer. The county maintains that it is focused on conducting a fair election and has not commented further on the personnel matter. Burgess's exit raises concerns about the stability and integrity of the electoral process in this critical swing county.
