Clark County Proposed Charter Amendment No. 22 - Concerning a Clarification of Nonpartisan Office Elections
Clark County, Washington
My vote power: High
What does this measure do?
Clark County would put a rule in its charter: nonpartisan county races with two or fewer candidates skip the primary and go to the even-year general election. Voters would see those races only on the general ballot; no tax change is proposed.

Proposed by: Clark County Charter Review Commission (Resolution No. 26-01)
The commission reviews the county charter, the rulebook for county government, and suggests changes. A change takes effect only if county voters approve it.

Put the two-or-fewer-candidates primary bypass rule in the county charter and follow state nonpartisan election procedures in even years.

Leave the county charter without this clarification of primary and general-election procedures.
