A two -card ballot is also included, as there are six (6) amendments, one (1) County referendum, and one (1) School Board referendum, in addition to Federal, State, multicounty, countywide, and special district races. Court mandates require the ballot to be printed bilingual, which will essentially double the length. Postage will also increase due to the heavier mail -weight of the ballots.
