We've just completed all 6,700+ voter registration forms from the #IowaCaucuses, and you know what that means: LET'S GET READY FOR SOME DATA! Here is an update on our #JohnsonCounty #VoterRegistration numbers, including how many forms were received for each political affiliation: 
Fun facts on the numbers:
-This is the highest number of registered voters in County history
-This is the first time the Democratic (or any) Party has made up over 50% of registered voters (51%)

If you changed your party affiliation for the Caucuses and have changed yourself back, you will be getting a card recognizing your change at the Caucuses first, then a card reflecting the second status change. We have to process forms in order received.
It’s time to meet another Deputy! Meet Nancy, our Minutes & Publications Deputy!
Nancy has been with the #JohnsonCounty Auditor’s Office for 11 years and leads the Minutes & Publications division.
Nancy has been with the #JohnsonCounty Auditor’s Office for 11 years and leads the Minutes & Publications division.
M&P is responsible for taking minutes for Board of Supervisors meetings, publishing those minutes and other county information in newspapers throughout Johnson County, processing and presenting tobacco and alcohol permit requests to the Board for approval, and MANY more things!
Nancy’s not a natural bragger, but she feels inclined to let everybody know that Minutes is #1 🙂. Nancy’s favorite part of working for the Auditor’s Office is when Elections Clerk Krista’s dad brings in home-baked cookies from her dad!
For our second installment of Meet the Deputies, we move from our longest-serving Deputy to our most recent one: Carrie, Deputy of #Elections! Carrie has been the Deputy of Elections since February of 2015. We'll let Carrie tell you why she decided to join the Auditor's Office:
"When I took this job, I thought it sounded interesting. I have a degree in political science as well as my JD, so politics and government has always interested me. But I had no idea how addicting elections could be!
I love the long hours, the training, the hustle and bustle – it means we are doing our best to make sure people’s voices can be heard. In a nutshell, my favorite part of working for the Auditor’s Office is that it is not just a job, but a mission.
Meet the Deputy: Chris, First Deputy!
Today we are highlighting Chris, First Deputy in the Johnson County Auditor’s Office.

Chris oversees #JohnsonCounty’s payroll and accounting functions, including processing biweekly payroll for the 1,000+ County employees, paying bills, and maintaining records of spending and receipts for the County’s $125 million budget!
His favorite part of working for the Auditor’s Office is the range of duties the office holds, from accounting to elections, real estate, and minutes, which always keep the job interesting.
Say hi to our fearless leader, #JohnsonCounty Auditor Travis Weipert!
Travis was elected in the 2012 General Election, and decided to run to facilitate change in the office, as he felt it could use some modifications and updating.

Before he became County Auditor, he worked for 12 years as a tax accountant at AEGON. During his time as County Auditor, Travis has enjoyed his interactions with the public the most, including suggestions on how we can improve.
He has been surprised by how the Auditor's Office interacts with every other county department.
When he is not working, Travis enjoys boating and fishing. Look out for more Auditor's Office profiles in the future!
