SECTION 10000-10004
10000. Every person is entitled to vote at a local, special, or consolidated election who is registered in any one of the precincts which compose the local, special, or consolidated election precincts, in accordance with this code. 10001. Except as otherwise specifically provided by law, all statewide special elections shall be called, conducted, and canvassed as provided by this code for the calling, conducting, and canvassing of general elections. 10002. The governing body of any city or district may by resolution request the board of supervisors of the county to permit the county elections official to render specified services to the city or district relating to the conduct of an election. Subject to approval of the board of supervisors, these services shall be performed by the county elections official. The resolution of the governing body of the city or district shall specify the services requested. Any city that requests the board of supervisors to permit the elections official to prepare the city's election materials shall, if the board of supervisors agrees to provide such services, supply the county elections official with a list of its precincts, or consolidated precincts, as applicable, no later than 61 days before the election. Unless other arrangements satisfactory to the county have been made, the city or district shall reimburse the county in full for the services performed upon presentation of a bill to the city or district. 10003. A county may by ordinance or resolution limit campaign contributions in county elections. 10004. If the governing body of any special district fails to call or to take any other steps necessary to the holding of the regular district election at which any member or members of the governing body of the district are to be selected, the board of supervisors of the county in which the district is located, upon being notified of this fact by any voter in the district, may call a special election within the district for the selection of the governing board member or members involved. The election shall be held not later than 90 days after it is called by the board of supervisors, and shall be conducted in the same manner as the regular district election. The costs of the special election shall be borne by the district for which the election is held.
