  2. Some counties no longer elect commissioners or treasurers.
  3. Political party town, ward and state committee members are elected in the presidential primary held in March of the presidential election years. Voters also indicate their preference for president in the presidential primary. Party candidates for all other offices on this chart are nominated in the September state primary.
