    002 - Ballot Breakdown: What the heck is a Comptroller?

    Dr. Linsey Grove and Lisa Yacso discuss the elected offices on your ballot, what they do, and how they impact issues important to our community.

The correct statement is that there are different rules relating to school board and county commission candidates/elected officials and where they live/whether they must continue to live there. Source: https://www.votepinellas.com/Election-Information/Maps/District-Maps (https://www.votepinellas.com/Election-Information/Maps/District-Maps)  Want more information about voting in your county?
