Blythe City Treasurer
This person manages the city's cash and investments. They report on Blythe's finances. The job is technical, not a policy role. The term is four years.
Only one candidate qualified for this seat. Incumbent City Treasurer Christa Elms is running unopposed for another term. This contest is settled, so your vote here will not change the outcome.
The city treasurer oversees Blythe's cash and investments and reports on the city's financial position -- a technical, non-policymaking role. The term is four years.
With no opponent, the useful question is what background Elms brings rather than who to choose -- but no independent biography, career background, or stated priorities could be found for them beyond their title and that they are the office's current occupant.
Christa Elms
Christa Elms is the incumbent City Treasurer, unopposed for another term. No other biography or career background was found for them.
