<p class="MsoNormal">Hi folks, the Secretary of State’s office may have to do some of the redistricting work, depending on whether the Legislature can complete their work and reach agreement as to the location of the new lines. If SOS has to get involved,
it will be under a tight timeline, from 9/28 - 10/18. They are trying to get organized and prepared just in case. As such, they are looking for someone that could help them with this task. The description for the position is below. They’re pursuing this
as a two week rotation. I’m not sure it would have to be done that way, but regardless, their HR Director would like to speak with the right person at the agency that might be willing to let someone take on this role.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">So, I’m reaching out to GPL first to see if you or anyone in your agency might be interested. If so, please let me know and I’ll get the ball rolling. I’d like to hear from you by the end of next week, as the time is short. Thanks!<o:p></o:p></p>
