Executive Summary:

With the exception of Phoenix and Tucson, who perform their own elections, municipalities across the state contract for the operation of their elections, primarily with their respective counties. While the City is responsible for many of the election activities such as preparation of the resolution, ballot language, public notices, and Information Pamphlet, the County prepares the ballot (with approval by the City), and both mails out and receives the ballots, as well as counts the ballots on election day. The attached Intergovernmental Agreement (IGA) outlines the roles of the City and County in this year's City election which will be held in conjunction with the statewide election.
