Established Polling Place Election Dates do not apply to: Special elections called by the Governor; elections held in charter cities where the charter specifies a different date; school board elections initiated by petition; school district elections which overlap a charter city by 95% population and city is holding election; Initiatives, Referendums or Recalls; Mailed Ballot Elections; 2/3's vote school district bond elections. Elections Code Section 1000 et. seq.
Established Mailed Ballot Election Dates are restricted to: A jurisdiction of fewer than 1,000 registered voters; a maximum property tax rate election (2287 Rev. & Tax. Code); imposition of special taxes or expenditure limit overrides or both in a jurisdiction of fewer than 5,000 registered voters; a general obligation water bond; Monterey County Water elections; Aliso Water elections; San Jacinto Water elections; San Lorenzo Water elections; elections or asessment ballot proceedings required or authorized by Article XIII C or XIII D of the CA Const. (includes all parcel tax elections regardless of the size or type of jurisdiction). Elections Code Section 4000
Miscellaneous provisions regarding when elections may be held: Elections must be held on Tuesdays and may not be the day before, the day of, or the day after a state holiday; 2/3's vote school bond elections may be called for any Tuesday that does not fall with 45 days on either side of a statewide primary or general election; 55% school bond elections must be held on primary, general or regular school board election date for jurisdiction.  Just as a rule of thumb, polling place elections should not be held on mailed ballot election dates and vice versa.  Currently Special Districts may hold mailed ballot elections on any Tuesday other than an established election date.  Cities may hold special vacancy elections by all mailed ballot on any Tuesday other than a statewide primary or general election.
