Election Information

On the April 5, 2022, ballot: PLEASE VOTE YES!

NON-ELECTION CLAUSE – VOTE (YES) OR (NO)

(SHALL THE CITY OF SKIDMORE BE ALLOWED TO FOREGO AN ELECTION IF THE NUMBER OF CANIDATES FILED IS EQUAL TO THE NUMBER OF SEATS TO BE FILLED). This will save the city money by NOT having an election if the number of candidates who filed match the number of open seats. This does not prevent certified write ins from filing as their deadlines are different. Each election the city holds cost anywhere from$125 to $350 – Meagan Morrow
