Sharon Bemis is President of the Election Integrity Network, where she oversees day-to-day operations, strategic planning, and the organization’s nationwide work to strengthen election administration and secure transparent, citizen-only elections. Her hands-on experience began in 2018 as Town Clerk, Treasurer, and Registrar of Voters for a small town in Maine, where she administered municipal, state, and federal elections, including Maine’s first under ranked choice voting, and conducted a midterm election within weeks of appointment.
