County clerk relishes her last Election Day

On her final Election Day as county clerk, Jeannie Goff found herself wide awake well before her alarm was set to ring at 3:45 a.m. Goff, 60, of De Soto has worked in the County Clerk’s Office for 40 years under five different county clerks, starting in 1986 with Eleanor Koch Rehm. She served as deputy chief to the clerk for 35 years until 2022, when voters elected her as county clerk on the Republican ticket.
