City of Yuma Proposition 436: Permanent Base Adjustment

Yuma city, Arizona

My vote power

High

Election date

November 3, 2026

How do we calculate my vote power?

What goes into the rating: Representation: how much weight one vote carries here compared with a statewide vote — the smaller the district, the more each vote counts. Decisiveness: how likely this race is to be close, based on past results or current analyst ratings, plus the number of candidates.

Representation: High · 69 out of 100

This district is a small slice of its state, so each vote here carries much more weight than a vote in a statewide race. About 100,139 people live here.

Show the representation math

score = 50 + 50 × ln(state population ÷ this district's) ÷ ln(50,000) = 50 + 50 × ln(7,378,838 ÷ 100,139) ÷ ln(50,000) = 69.87, measured against a statewide vote in AZ (grades: 66+ high, 33+ normal, otherwise low; a statewide race is the 50 baseline)

High representation → My vote power: High.

Ballot Measure

Supports: Public Infrastructure

Opposes: Government Spending Reduction

Proposition 436 would permanently increase by $30 million the 1979-80 expenditure base used to calculate the City of Yuma's state Annual Expenditure Limitation. It would let the city spend lawfully collected revenue on existing and planned services and infrastructure without creating a new tax, fee, or revenue source.

A YES vote means

A yes vote permanently increases Yuma's expenditure base by $30 million, allowing the city to spend more revenue it already lawfully collects on services and infrastructure.

A no vote leaves Yuma's existing expenditure base and state-calculated expenditure limitation unchanged.
