The Anaheim City Council is the legislative branch of government for the city of Anaheim, California. The city operates under a council-manager form of government with a separately elected mayor and a council-appointed city manager. There are currently four members of the council. City council members serve a four-year term and are limited to two successive terms.
Elections
Each city council member is elected from a single-member district. Elections follow a two-round system. The first round of the election is called the primary election. The top-two candidates in the primary election advance to a runoff election, called the general election. Write-in candidates are only allowed to contest the primary election and are not allowed in the general election. Council members are elected to four-year terms, with a two-term limit.[1] City council seats are all officially non-partisan by state law, although most members identify a party preference.
The most recent general election was held in November 2018 for districts 1 and 2. The next elections for these seats will be held in 2022. General elections for districts 3 and 4 were last held in November 2016. The next election for these seats will be in 2020.
