While positions like a "County Supervisor of Elections" or a state supervisor might vary across the country. Some are directly elected, others are appointed but affirmed (as judges are in some jurisdictions) and others might be strictly appointed, the process is still political because redistricting is political. There's still a heavy political factor in US elections that doesn't seem to be the case anywhere else (that I've lived anyway).
