county elections
Regional ballot contests
County elections are votes held to choose officials who govern at the county level, such as sheriffs, commissioners, judges, and clerks.
These elections typically occur on set cycles and may coincide with state or national elections, though turnout is often lower.
County elections determine who oversees local services like law enforcement, property records, and courts.
The county elections brought out fewer voters than the presidential race.
