Many counties in USA are implementing Telugu for admin use. Just have a look and put your efforts to include Telugu use in further more counties.

Telugu appears on ballot boxes and voting materials in several US counties, particularly in California, for the 2020 US presidential election and beyond.

Specifically:

The Santa Clara County in California lets voters register for mail-in voting in six Indian languages, including Telugu.

Los Angeles County, the most populous county in the US, has listed Telugu as a 'mandated' language for providing voting assistance, along with Hindi, Bengali, and Gujarati.

In Alameda County, California, election materials and voting support have been made available in three Indian languages including Telugu, in addition to 13 other languages.

In Loudon County, Virginia, sample ballots were provided in Telugu for the 2020 election, which was the first time this happened in US history.

So in summary, Telugu has been included as one of the languages available on mail-in voting forms and materials in several US counties, especially in California, to cater to the growing Telugu-speaking population in the country.
