Priorities for the Next Four Years


Looking ahead, Elaina is focused on continuing to modernize services, strengthen security, and enhance public confidence in both elections and public records.


Property Fraud Notification System She plans to implement a fraud notification system that alerts property owners whenever activity occurs related to their property—adding an important layer of protection against deed fraud and identity theft.


Ensuring Compliance with AB 1466 Elaina will oversee the required updates to public records systems to remove obsolete or unlawful language in compliance with AB 1466, ensuring records reflect current legal standards while maintaining historical integrity.


Strengthening Election Security Elaina will continue identifying and implementing additional security measures to ensure San Luis Obispo County elections remain safe, secure, and resilient against evolving threats.


Evaluating the Vote Center Model Elaina will evaluate the potential benefits and impacts of transitioning to the Vote Center model, carefully assessing whether it would improve voter access, efficiency, and service while meeting the unique needs of San Luis Obispo County.
