What this office does: A county commissioner is one of the members of the board that adopts the county budget, sets the property tax rate and oversees county government.
Residency district: every voter in the county votes for this seat (the district is where the member must live; State Board November 5, 2024 general election precinct results, other seats of the same board). Limited voting: both Western District seats are filled at once; each voter may vote for one candidate, and the two candidates with the most votes win (1991 Session Laws, Chapter 302, per the Martin County Board of Elections).
