The Sandoval County Ethics Board convened on June 2, 2025, marking a significant moment with the election of Nancy Jinx as the new chair. The meeting began with the Pledge of Allegiance, followed by a roll call that confirmed the presence of board members, including those attending via Zoom.
In a smooth transition of leadership, board member Robert Wilkins nominated Jinx for the chair position, which was seconded by Amina Everett. Jinx expressed her gratitude for the support and highlighted her extensive experience in leadership roles, both in paid and volunteer capacities. "I look forward to leading and uniting us as we continue on," she stated, setting a positive tone for her tenure.
The board unanimously voted in favor of Jinx's nomination, solidifying her role as chair. Following her election, Jinx took over the agenda and initiated the process for selecting a vice chair. Wilkins expressed his willingness to serve in that capacity, prompting immediate nominations.
This meeting not only established new leadership but also set the stage for future discussions and decisions within the Ethics Board. The election of Jinx is expected to bring a fresh perspective and renewed focus on ethical governance in Sandoval County.
