Message from the City Clerk
Thank you for visiting Glendale's election information website. Here you can find information about upcoming elections, past elections, campaign contributions to candidates and elected officials, as well as information on the election process in the following languages: Armenian, Spanish, Korean, and Tagalog.
In 2015, the State Legislature adopted and Governor Brown signed Senate Bill (SB) 415, which requires cities with voter turnout rates lower than that of statewide elections to consolidate with the State. This new law necessitated Glendale to reexamine how we conduct our elections. On November 7, 2017 a report was presented to the City Council called “California Voter Participation Rights Act (CVPRA) and Proposed Changes to Glendale Municipal Election Administration,” in order for the City Council to decide the future of Glendale Municipal Elections per SB 415. Based on Council direction, Measure P was placed on the ballot and passed by voters in 2018. With the passage of Measure P, the City of Glendale's Charter was amended to state that General Municipal Elections shall be held to coincide with any statewide primary election date in even numbered years.
The State Legislature adopted Senate Bill 970, which changes the statewide primary date in non-presidential election years back to June, commencing in 2022. The City’s general election during Presidential election years will remain on the Tuesday after the first Monday in March.
If you have any questions regarding this election, please contact the City Clerk's office at (818) 548-4000 and someone on our staff will try to help you with your inquiry. Thank you for being engaged in your community and interested in its future.
