Ballot Simplification Committee - June 2016

The Ballot Simplification Committee prepares a fair and impartial summary of each local ballot measure in simple language. These summaries, or “digests,” are prepared at public meetings and are printed in San Francisco’s Voter Information Pamphlet, which is mailed to every registered voter before the election. 

 Upcoming election:      June 7, 2016 Consolidated Presidential Primary Election
 Meetings begin:      Monday, February 29, 2016
 Completion deadline:      Monday, March 14, 2016

Agendas will be posted at least 72 hours prior to the meeting, as mandated by the Sunshine Ordinance. Other meeting materials will be made available as early as possible. Please check for updates.
