Inside Elections

The San Mateo County Board of Supervisors voted 3 to 1 to appoint the City of San Mateo Councilmember Carole Groom to the District 2 seat vacated by newly elected Assemblymember Jerry Hill.  The major reason cited for supporting appointment is the cost associated with conducting an election.

Unless the State opts for an early special election to address the budget, or a local jurisdiction calls for a special election, San Mateo County won’t be conducting an election in March 2009.

The only 2009 election currently anticipated for this County would take place November 3, 2009.  The jurisidictions scheduled for a 2009 Uniform District Election would be:
