Lindsey Taylor loved running elections here.
The previous registrar had spent nearly three decades in the job, and Taylor, 37, hoped to do the same when she was hired in 2019. She loved her staff and the volunteer poll workers, and she took pride in the detail-oriented work. She implemented dozens of new laws in 2020, ran elections through the pandemic and impressed many in the rural, conservative, tight-knit community of Buckingham County.
But then the voter fraud claims started.
In January, the GOP assumed control of the Buckingham County Electoral Board that oversees her office, and local Republicans began advancing baseless voter fraud claims that baffled her. The electoral board made it clear it wanted her out of the job.

Well...doesn't matter what side of the fence you are on or if you strattle it...if yo are going to be in this job yo had batter have thick skin. You know you did right so that is allthat counts. If Biden wins tis was a fraud, if Trump wins tit was a fraud...there willalways be those who are not happy with election outcomes and will blame everyone in the path...this is government service and if you acan't handle accusations knowing you have done everything correctly then you should probably quit.
