WATER CODE
SECTION 60210-60217




60210.  The provisions of the Elections Code so far as they may be
applicable shall govern all general district elections and all
special district elections, except as in this act otherwise provided.



60211.  No person shall vote at any district election held under the
provisions of this act who is not a voter within the meaning of the
Elections Code, residing in the division of the district in which he
or she casts his or her vote. For the purpose of registering voters
who shall be entitled to vote at district elections, the county
elections official is authorized, in any county in which there is a
district, to indicate upon the affidavit of registration whether the
voter is a voter of a district.



60212.  In case the boundary line of a district crosses the boundary
line of a county election precinct only those voters within the
district and within the precinct who are registered as being voters
within the district shall be permitted to vote, and for that purpose
the county elections official may provide two sets of ballots within
those precincts, one containing the names of candidates for office in
the district, and the other not containing those names, and it shall
be the duty of the election officers in those precincts to furnish
only those persons registered as voters within the district with the
ballots upon which are printed the names of the candidates for office
in the district.


60213.  In counties in which districts are located the county
elections official is hereby given authority, and is authorized to
have printed upon the official ballots provided for voters at
elections for directors a heading in the same form as that provided
by the Elections Code for nonpartisan officers, which heading shall
be marked "Water Replenishment District," with a subheading "For a
Member of the Board of Directors, Division ____ (here inserting the
number of the division)--Vote for One," and beneath which shall
appear the names of the candidates for the office of member of the
board for the division of the district, with the appropriate blank
space for the writing in of the name of a candidate if desired by the
voters, and with a voting square placed opposite the space. The
ballots thus provided shall be furnished by the precinct officers
only to those voters within their respective precincts who shall
appear on the register as duly registered voters within that division
of the district, and in precincts that lie partly within that
district and partly without the precinct board shall be supplied with
two kinds of ballots by the county elections official, one of which
shall contain the matters hereinabove set forth for the use of voters
of the district, and the other of which shall be without the heading
containing the names of candidates for the office of member of the
board, and which shall be furnished to those voters who are not
voters of the district and who are voters of the precinct.




60214.  The board shall call and canvass all elections involving
matters of initiative and referendum and shall call all other
elections which it is authorized to canvass.



60215.  The governing body calling or conducting any election under
the provisions of this act shall fix the compensation to be paid the
officers of the election and shall designate the precincts and
polling places for each division of the district and shall appoint
the officers of such election, who shall consist of one inspector,
one judge, and two clerks, unless, in case of consolidated elections,
other officers of election are required by law.



60216.  The voting precincts for any such election may be
established and the boundaries thereof fixed and described by such
governing body, or such voting precincts may consist of either the
regular election precincts or portions thereof within the district
established for holding state or county elections, or a consolidation
of any or all of such regular election precincts or portions thereof
last established.



60217.  If any district election is consolidated with any state or
county election, then the voting precincts, polling places, and
election officers for the district election shall be the same as
those established for such state or county election.
