Vote: St. Pete
Amendment 1: Limiting City Council Elections to Voters in the Applicable Council District and Making Related Changes
A Look at Charter Amendments on the Ballot By Abby Baker
CITY OF ST. PETERSBURG
In primaries, only voters in each district may vote for St. Petersburg City Council candidates running in that district; however, the general elections are citywide – meaning, any voter in the city may vote for candidates of all districts. This amendment would change the charter to eliminate citywide voting for council candidates. Voters will also decide whether a candidate who receives more than 50% of the votes in the primary (first round election) will win by default. Amendment 2: Establishing New Process for Drawing District Boundaries for Election of City Council Members
The November 2 election will determine the new St. Petersburg mayor and new councilmembers, but voters will also get the chance to change the
city charter, something that only happens once every 10 years. In 2021, there are seven amendments to consider.
The second amendment would draw new district boundaries on voting zones for city council seats.
