Elections in Pima County, Tucson, Sahuarita, Oro Valley and several school districts are Tuesday.

Pima County mailed 311,763 ballots to people on the permanent early voting list or to people who requested an early ballot, said Chris Roads, the chief deputy Pima County recorder. As of Monday afternoon, Roads said 138,082 had been sent back, a return rate of about 44 percent.

All Pima County voters can decide on the seven bond questions that ask whether to raise taxes and borrow money to for 99 community projects.

Tucson voters have three city council seats and the mayor on the ballot, plus a question of whether to ban red light cameras and whether to change the city charter. Oro Valley residents are asked to retain or replace three city council members and the mayor.

School districts throughout the county are asking voters to make financial decisions.

If you have an early ballot and have not yet mailed it, it is too late to do so. It must be at the elections office by 7 p.m. Tuesday to count. The county has three sites open to hand-deliver a ballot to be counted Tuesday night.

They are:

  • 240 N. Stone Ave., first floor
  • 6920 E. Broadway Blvd., suite D
  • 6550 S. Country Club Rd.

Polling places will be open 6 a.m. to 7 p.m. Find out where you can vote in person on the Pima County Recorder's website.

The recorder’s office checks the voters’ signatures, then sends the ballots to the Pima County Election Office, which will count early ballots when it begins counting votes Tuesday night.

The county will release the first results after 8 p.m. They will be available on news.azpm.org.
