Details via the Dallas Morning News:
Dallas County Elections Administrator Bruce Sherbet, under pressure from County Judge Clay Jenkins and County Commissioner John Wiley Price, said Wednesday that he would resign from the post he’s held for more than two decades.
Sherbet told The Dallas Morning News that he would submit a letter of resignation this morning and hoped to stay on the job until March 1.
“I don’t want to work under these conditions, where the county judge and the most powerful person in the county are against me for no legitimate reason,” Sherbet said. “I love my job, but I’ll go do something else.”
Jenkins released a carefully worded statement in which he misspelled Sherbet’s name...
Price had no reaction to Sherbet’s decision, but confirmed that he had talked to Sherbet Wednesday morning.
“It was good,” Price said of the meeting. “It was civil.”
But hours after that meeting, Sherbet decided to resign.
Sherbet has been Dallas County elections administrator since 1987 and is one of the most respected elections officials in the country.
