Via Town of Guilford

GUILFORD, CT — First Selectman Matt Hoey has announced that both Guilford Registrars of Voters Lisa Kops and Gloria Nemczuk have been named as recipients of the Guilford Employee Recognition Award.

Hoey, who initiated the award program, has encouraged all employees to nominate fellow employees to be recognized for outstanding achievement and performance in their work.

The Employee Recognition Awards Committee selected Kops and Nemczuk, who were both nominated by multiple fellow employees for their work during this past presidential election and especially for their roles in a smooth early voting process.

Systems Administrator Jeremy Orton nominated them for "going above and beyond to ensure that every resident was given an opportunity to engage in early voting." He said that they both "were able to make this highly turbulent time smooth and worry free."

Information Technology Analyst Tony Santarcangelo nominated them for "their unwavering commitment to accuracy, efficiency, and exceptional service to our town."

Finally, Human Resources Coordinator Samantha Meder noted "their amazing organization and orchestration with early voting," as well as "their kindness and integrity regardless of party and their experience and loyalty to the democratic process."

Elected to their positions as registrars, Nemczuk has been the Republican Registrar of Voters since 2012 and Kops has been the Democratic Registrar of Voters since 2019. They both received an Employee Recognition Award certificate as well as a gift card from Hoey in recognition of their achievements.
