Elections- 2012 Primary Voters' Pamphlet

Primary Election - August 7, 2012

Precinct Committee Officers (PCO):


	Only contested races appear on the ballot. A contested race is one where two or more candidates file for one party position in a single precinct. The PCO candidate receiving the most votes in the Primary is elected. If only one candidate files for a party PCO, that candidate is considered elected, and the office will not appear on the ballot. Write-ins are not allowed. For the limited purpose of voting in a PCO election, a voter affiliates with a major political party when he or she votes for a candidate of that party. Therefore, voters may vote for only one party and only one PCO candidate within that party. No PCO statements or photos are included in this voters’ pamphlet.

For this office only:

In order to vote for precinct committee officer, a partisan office, you must affirm that you are a Democrat or a Republican and may vote only for one candidate from the party you select. Your vote for a candidate affirms your affiliation with the same party as the candidate. This preference is private and will not be matched to your name or shared.
