City/School Election
Beginning in 2019, School and City Elections will be combined and held in November of odd-numbered years. A City election is used to elect the Mayor and Council Members and any other elected city officials. In Clinton County, Clinton and DeWitt have provisions that could cause a run-off election to take place in December.
