YUMA, Ariz. (KYMA) – San Luis, Arizona residents are casting their votes Tuesday as three items are on the ballot.
One of the focal points of this election is Proposition 434, which would end the pay and benefits for the San Luis mayor and City Council members.
San Luis city council member Lizeth Servin was against proposition 434.
If Prop 434 is approved, The San Luis mayor and council members would serve the public without compensation, benefits, and travel allowances.
Servin told me that it would be difficult, and very hard to afford to be able to do the job without this pay and benefits.
She says she hopes people understand the council’s perspective, and is glad with the voter turnout.
“I’ve been here all day since morning, and it’s just been consistent, it hasn’t been like a multitude of people coming at once, but it’s been steady, like constant movement so I’m happy with the turn out,” Servin says.
As a reminder these are not the official results, just the early ones.
Official results should be in by Friday.
