Information for Election Officers on Konnech Software
On October 5, the Fairfax County Office of Elections stopped using Konnech’s PollChief software to manage Election Officer applications, training, communications and assignments. The County started using PollChief software in 2016.
The previous day, October 4, Konnech President Eugene was arrested in Michigan, in an investigation into the suspected “theft of personal identifying information” of Los Angeles County election workers. The arrest was announced by the Los Angeles County District Attorney, who is seeking Yu’s extradition to Los Angeles.
