          HI, I'M JOHN HEIMER, YOUR JEFFERSON PARISH CLERK OF COURT. 
          THE RIGHT TO VOTE IS AMONG OUR MOST BASIC FREEDOMS AS YOUR CLERK OF COURT. 
          I SERVE AS THE PARISH'S CHIEF ELECTIONS OFFICIAL, RESPONSIBLE FOR ENSURING FREE AND FAIR ELECTIONS. 
          LAWFUL TRUSTED ELECTIONS DEPEND ON THE HARD WORK OF DEDICATED ELECTIONS. 
          COMMISSIONERS, THOSE CITIZENS WHO ADMINISTER AND SAFEGUARD THE VOTING PROCESS ON ELECTION DAY AT THE POLLS. 
          WE DEEPLY APPRECIATE THEIR SERVICE. 
          I MUST ALSO THANK OUR DEDICATED CLERK OF COURT EMPLOYEES ALL TRAINED AS EMERGENCY COMMISSIONERS SHOULD WE NEED THEM. 
          THERE WILL BE MAJOR STATEWIDE AND LOCAL ELECTIONS THIS FALL REQUIRING 1,350 COMMISSIONERS, ALL WELL-TRAINED BY OUR OFFICE'S ELECTION STAFF. 
          AS ALWAYS, THEY'LL GET THE JOB DONE. 
          I HOPE THAT EVERYONE WHO HEARS THIS MESSAGE WILL CONSIDER SERVING AS AN ELECTIONS COMMISSIONER. 
          INFORMATION ON HOW TO ENLIST FOR TRAINING IS AVAILABLE ON OUR WEBSITE, WWW.JP CLERK OF COURT, US. 
          PLEASE BE SURE TO VOTE THIS FALL. 
          THANK YOU.
