Election Day in Tucson, Vail: Council seats, minimum wage, school budget before voters
Voters who've held onto their ballots in the all-mail-in Tucson city and Vail School District elections have a few locations they can hand them over in person on Tuesday. All ballots must be received by 7 p.m. on Election Day to be counted.
The first election results will be released about an hour after the polls close, so check back for updates after 8 p.m.
The last day to return ballots by mail was last week — any voter who hasn't yet cast a ballot must make sure to return it in person.
Tucson and Vail both conduct all-mail local elections, with only a limited number of polling places open on Election Day itself.
Tucson voters are picking the next members of the Council from Wards 3, 5 and 6, and voting on Props. 206 (minimum wage increase) and 410 (salary increase for mayor and councilmembers). Vail voters are having their say on a budget override for maintenance and operations. About 20,000 voters are eligible to participate in both elections, but must hand in their ballots in different locations, except for the East Side (Broadway) office of Pima County Recorder.
The Recorder's Office locations offer ballot drop-off only. Voters cannot pick up a new or replacement ballot at those sites.
All ballot locations are open 6 a.m.-7 p.m. on Tuesday.
