LAKE COUNTY, Calif. – The Lake County Registrar of Voters Office has issued an update on the Nov. 3 General District Election.
Registrar of Voters Diane Fridley said the election is not a countywide election, and consists of only three districts with candidates’ names on the ballot.
She said the election is to elect candidates in the following jurisdictions because there were more candidates than there were offices to be filled:
– Upper Lake Union Elementary School District: Three candidates' names are printed on the ballot. However, there are only two positions to be filled at this election (vote for no more than two).
– Lake County Fire Protection District: Four candidates' names are printed on the ballot; there are only three positions to be filled (vote for no more than three).
– Clearlake Oaks County Water District: Five candidates' names are printed on the ballot; there are only three positions to be filled (vote for no more than three).
Not all candidates submitted a “candidate’s statement of qualifications” to be printed in the sample ballot booklet, according to Fridley.
Fridley said candidates are not required to submit a candidate’s statement for printing and if a candidate does submit a statement, the candidate is responsible for the printing cost of his/her statement.
For this election, the cost to have a candidate’s statement printed in the sample ballot booklet ranged from $414.80 to $670.68, Fridley said.
Fridley's office has contact information for each one of the candidates running for the elective offices and the “candidates list” is available to any voter who requests the list either by mail, in person or by email.
Contact the Lake County Registrar of Voters office by phone at 707-263-2372 or drop by the Lake County Courthouse, 255 N. Forbes St., Room 209, Lakeport during regular business hours of 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. to pick up the candidates list for the upcoming November election.
