COUNTY AUDITOR · Pacific County

My name is Dotsi Graves, and I am proud to be running for Pacific County Auditor. Serving as Pacific County Auditor, and continuing my commitment to this community, would be the greatest honor of my career. With 30 years of county service, leadership experience, and extensive knowledge of the Auditor’s Office, I am prepared to serve the people of Pacific County with dedication, integrity, and accountability. From 2003 to 2007, I worked in the Auditor’s Office, where I advanced to the role of Chief Deputy. During that time, I gained hands-on experience in elections, as well as the many other responsibilities the Auditor’s Office oversees. In 2023, I returned to the Auditor’s Office to become the Elections Administrator, where my passion for elections was reignited. I completed the rigorous certification process and in June, I received my certificate. For the past seven months, as the only certified Elections Administrator in Pacific County, I have been responsible for conducting elections, building strong professional relationships, relying on trusted resources, and working diligently to ensure every election was conducted accurately and professionally. With your support, I will continue to work hard every day.

My journey has been defined by a dedication to excellence, a passion for service, and a commitment to continuous growth. Throughout my previous professional career as a Logistics Manager, I have demonstrated adaptability, integrity, and a collaborative spirit, all of which I believe are essential qualities for this role. If elected, I will bring my best effort, fresh perspective, and unwavering dedication to the people of Pacific County. I am eager to contribute, learn, and grow alongside colleagues and citizens, and am committed to making a meaningful impact for the good of our communities. My time in this role has been filled with lots of challenges and opportunities to grow. From the implementation of a new payroll system to the building of a new county website, I rise to the occasion to ensure the Auditor’s Office is on the right path to better serve you. My plans to strengthen the Office go beyond the election, and with your help, I hope to be the one to bring these visions to fruition. I believe that the people of Pacific County deserve an Office that is run with humble service and bold integrity. It is my mission to do just that!
