As election results finalize, Shasta board waits to reconsider censure against elections official Clint Curtis

In April, the Shasta County Board of Supervisors pushed back a formal vote of censure against current Registrar of Voters Clint Curtis, citing the timing right before the election as the reason for the delay.

Since then, Curtis appears to have lost the election, though results remain unofficial for now. With the June 2 primary expected to be certified in the next few weeks, questions remain about whether the board will follow through on its promise to reconsider censuring the elections official in response to substantiated findings of abusive conduct towards staff.

Two publicly released investigative reports about Curtis’ behavior have detailed threats of violence, retaliation and verbal abuse.

In April’s board meeting, Shasta County Support Services Director Monica Fugitt reported on those findings — which Curtis has categorically denied — and recommended that the board request Curtis to be separated from staff or that staff from the personnel’s office be sent in to monitor interactions in the elections office, the latter of which has since occurred.
