SNIP...ARTICLE III - STATEMENT OF ETHICS

The role of Secretary of State is a noble calling, and carries a high ethical mandate and a conscientious duty to our democracy. Accordingly, Association members commit to the following:

Adhering to the highest standards of excellence that will nurture and maintain the public trust;
Placing loyalty to state and federal constitutions, the law, and ethical principles above private or political gain; and
For those Secretaries of State who serve as their state's chief elections official, practicing fair and unbiased election administration that recognizes each eligible citizen's right to cast his or her vote, and for that vote to be counted with the highest regard to constitutional foundations....SNIP

On second thought, he should be removed from office altogether for his countless ethical violations.

*Every single SOS should be censured (and removed) for allowing computerized voting & tabulating in elections and other forms of voter suppression.
