Theresa LePore is the former elections supervisor for Palm Beach County, Florida. She designed the "butterfly ballot" in the 2000 presidential election. She lost in September 2004 to Dr. Arthur Anderson and left office in January 2005.

LePore was a registered Republican, but then switched her party to Democratic because according to her "when I ran [for the supervisor position], I chose Democrat because the incumbent was Democrat and the county registration is predominantly Democrat." After the 2000 election, she switched her party registration to Independent.

LePore is a member of the following organizations:

• American Society of Public Adminisrators
• The Election Center
• Kiwanis of Flagler Sunrise
• League of Women Voters
• International Association of Clerks, Recorders, Election Officials and Treasurers
• Women's Chamber of Commerce of the Palm Beaches

LePore is also the President of the Florida State Association of Supervisors of Election. In the past she has served as Secretary and Vice-President for FSASE.
