The Choice is Yours voter info booklet arrived in the mail today. You can read view the sample ballot for Tucson City Council (Ward 3, 5 and 6), and read about the Propositions to be voted on: Prop. 206 raising miniumum wage to $15 (by 2025), and Prop. 410 raising the salaries of the Mayor & Tucson City Councilmembers(to take effect in 2023).
