9-19-13 fdl county clerk concerned about proposed election law changes

The Fond du Lac County Clerk is expressing concern about a couple of election law changes under consideration in the state legislature.  Republican senator Mary Lazich is proposing a bill that would allow poll workers to serve in communities other than where they reside.  Fond du Lac County Clerk Lisa Freiberg says in the county having poll workers who live in the township is valuable because in smaller communities everybody knows one another.  Freiberg says the other change would require people who sign nomination papers to also write their name under their signature so its legible.
