§ 103072 San Mateo Transit Formation

This law says that every election ballot must show the required instructions and also ask voters if they want to create the San Mateo County Transit District, with Yes and No choices.

Key Takeaways

  • •Ballots must include all legally required instructions.
  • •They must also contain the specific Yes/No question about forming the San Mateo County Transit District.
  • •Voters answer Yes or No, and those votes are used to decide if the district is created.

Example

Jane goes to the polling place to vote in a local election. On her ballot she sees a question that says, “Shall the ‘San Mateo County Transit District’ be formed?” and she can mark Yes or No.

Because the law requires that question to be on the ballot, Jane’s answer will be counted toward deciding whether the transit district gets created.
