When the political party in power changes, the following employees may be at risk of losing their jobs:
- Elected Governance officials: These officials are directly voted in and may be replaced by candidates from the new party.
- Appointed Governance officials: These positions are often filled by the party in power and may be subject to replacement when a new party takes control.
The other categories, such as Regional Planners, Postal Service employees, and Internal Revenue Service workers, are typically civil service positions, which are protected and less likely to be directly affected by a change in political leadership.
