When are the Longboat Key Preliminary and General Elections Held?

The Longboat Key Town Commission consists of seven members elected for 3-year terms. Districts 1, 3, and 5 and one At-Large District seat are elected in even numbered years. Districts 2 and 4 and one At-Large District seat are elected in odd numbered years.

When there are more than two qualified candidates for an elective office on the Town Commission, the Town Charter requires that a preliminary election be held on the last Tuesday of January. The names of the first and second candidates who received the highest number of votes casts for that particular Commission office are then placed on the ballot for that office in the general election.

The general election will be held on the 3rd Tuesday in March, or, when practicable, in conjunction with any Manatee County or Sarasota County election held in March.
