Shasta elections chief denies misconduct findings, plans lawsuit

Shasta County Registrar of Voters Clint Curtis denounced the results of two investigations into misconduct allegations made against during a raucous press conference that drew supporters and critics of the elections chief who showed up to hear what he had to say.

Standing outside the Market Street elections office flanked by four American flags in downtown Redding on Thursday evening, Curtis categorically denied all findings from the investigations, and called up three off-the-clock election workers to corroborate his claims.

"I didn't do anything that was in that report. None of it ... it's all just a hack job," said Curtis.

Curtis also said he is skeptical of the methods of third-party investigator Oppenheimer Investigations Group, and will be suing them.
