Some nonpartisan offices, such as most city councils and school boards, do not use primaries. Candidates run as independents and the person with the most votes wins even if it is not a majority. There is no set time or method that applies to all city, county, school, or special district elections. If you are a registered voter, you will receive a Sample Ballot before the election. This will provide the information you need about who is running for what office and whether there are any local ballot measures.
All local offices are nonpartisan and candidates run without party affiliation noted on the ballot.
