Summary
If a county commissioner position becomes vacant, the county convention members representing the towns in that district select a replacement by majority vote. The appointee serves until the next biennial county election, and if the remaining term is short, the seat is placed on that election ballot for a two‑year term. The change eliminates the previous Hillsborough County exception.
