§ 10542 Landowner Voting District Ballots

This law says each local voting area gets to decide how ballots are handed out, how people vote, and how the completed ballots are turned in.

Key Takeaways

•Each voting district can set its own rules for ballot delivery, voting, and ballot return.
•The clerk or judge is the person who hands out and receives the ballots.
•These rules apply to general district elections.

Example

In a small county, the election clerk gives you a paper ballot, you mark your choices, and then you drop the ballot into the ballot box at the polling place.

Because the county is a landowner voting district, it can set those steps – giving the ballot, letting you fill it out, and collecting it – just like the law says.

The principal act of each landowner voting district participating in the general district election shall govern the manner in which the ballot is delivered by the clerk or judge to a voter of that district, the method by which the voter casts his vote or votes, and the manner in which the ballot is returned by the voter to the clerk or judge and placed in the ballot box. (Enacted by Stats. 1994, Ch. 920, Sec. 2.)
