    She is also the only Democrat elected county-wide in the Silver State’s second-largest county and the only swing county. A native Nevadan and alumna of the University of Nevada, Reno, Kalie joins a growing list of endorsers for Kamala Harris in Nevada, including Clark County Commissioner Justin Jones, State Senator Pat Spearman, former Henderson City Councilwoman Gerri Schroder, and former Clark County Democratic Party Chair Chris Miller.

    “Over the past several months, I have truly been inspired by Senator Harris’s groundbreaking candidacy,” said Washoe County Recorder Kalie Work. “She has demonstrated time and time again that she is best equipped to find practical and compassionate solutions to the challenges we face. Kamala is smart and tough, and has the temperament and integrity to lead our country. As a fellow woman of color, I am honored to endorse Kamala and will do all that I can to ensure she wins the state caucus and is elected President of the United States. It’s way past time we have a woman like Kamala Harris in the Oval Office.”

    As the Washoe County Recorder, Kalie advocates for the use of technology to make local government more efficient, secure, and user-friendly. Kalie holds a bachelor’s degree from the University of Nevada, Reno and is completing her graduate degree in Management at Harvard University. Before becoming an elected official, Kalie worked in the private sector where she led teams in operations and finance compliance at Microsoft.
