What is the difference between a special election, a primary election, and a general election?
A. A ‘special election’ means an election that arises from some emergency or special need outside the usual routine. This could include a vacancy in a public office or the holding of a county referendum. An example of a referendum would be the holding of a special local option sales tax question in the county.
