Goleta Water District election process outlined for November
The Goleta County Water District will mail sample ballots and select election officials, not the county clerk's division. J E Lewis deputized Dan Hawkes to manage this, noting districts handle their own elections when distant. Veteran incumbents face strong challenger bids, including a three member team with Llana Sherman, a woman candidate and school teacher. Isla Vista precincts may hinder ballot delivery with undelivered samples returning to Goleta, due to student address changes. Islamistans are predicted to vote against incumbents.
