- FAQ About Scarsdale's Non-Partisan Election System2023-02-20Scarsdale's Non-Partisan Election System promotes the election of candidates who are qualified by reason of their civic, rather than political, abilities and experience. Village qualified voters elect a Citizens Nominating Committee (CNC), which in turn selects a slate of candidates for the village offices of trustee, mayor and village justice. The system encourages the active participation of all residents. The Non-Partisan system is financed entirely by community support.
