§ 10517 District Election Responsibilities

• •Each county runs the election for the part of the district inside its borders.
• •If a district spans multiple counties, the counties can agree that one officer runs the whole election.
• •This rule applies unless another part of the law says something different.

A school district covers both County X and County Y. The election officers from both counties decide that the officer from County X will run the entire school board election for the whole district.

Because the district is in two counties, the law lets the two county officials make a deal so only one of them handles the whole voting process, instead of each county doing its own piece.
