ST. PAUL – State Rep. Jim Nash, R-Waconia, has accepted an appointment to serve as the Republican lead on the House’s Subcommittee on Elections when the 2019 legislative session begins Jan. 8 in St. Paul.
Nash, entering his third term in office, has served on elections-related committees throughout his tenure.
“The very foundation of our Republic depends on well-functioning elections,” Nash said. “It is incumbent upon this subcommittee to make sure our system is one citizens can trust and that performs as the framers of our Constitution intended. The challenges we face are evolving – especially in this era of data and technology – and I look forward to bringing my perspectives to the committee.”
The full committee roster is in the process of being finalized for the upcoming session.
