Idaho State Statutes - Idaho Attorney Directory

On the
first Tuesday of February in the second calendar year after the organization
of any district, and on the first Tuesday of February every second year
thereafter, an election shall be held which shall be known as the biennial
election of the district. Prior to January 1, 1997, a board may, by resolution
adopted at a regular meeting of the board, designate the fourth Tuesday in May
as the election date of the district.
At the first biennial election in any district hereafter organized and
each sixth year thereafter there shall be elected by the qualified electors of
the district three (3) members of the board to serve for a term of six (6)
years; at the second biennial election and each sixth year thereafter there
shall be elected two (2) members of the board to serve for a term of six (6)
years; at the third biennial election and each sixth year thereafter there
shall be elected two (2) members of the board to serve for terms of six (6)
years.
[thirty ( ) sixty ( )] Nominations may be filed with the secretary of the
board not later than the sixth Friday preceding the election for which the
nomination is made, and if a nominee does not withdraw his name before the
first publication of the notice of election, his name shall be placed on the
ballot. The board shall provide for holding such elections and shall appoint
judges to conduct it; the secretary of the district shall give notice of
election by publication and shall arrange such other details in connection
therewith as the board may direct. The returns of the election shall be
certified to and shall be canvassed and declared by the board. The candidate
or candidates according to the number of directors to be elected, receiving
the most votes shall be elected. Any new member of the board shall qualify in
the same manner as members of the first board qualify.
In any election for director, if after the deadline for filing a
declaration of intent as a write-in candidate, it appears that only one (1)
qualified candidate has been nominated for a director's position, it shall not
be necessary for the candidate to stand for election, and the board of
directors of the district shall declare such candidate elected as a director,
and the secretary of the board of the district shall immediately make and
deliver to such person a certificate of election.
