To qualify, voters must be U.S. Citizens, at least 18 years old by the first Tuesday after the first Monday in November, and Nebraska residents. As an incorporated village, Unadilla holds municipal elections for Village Board trustees and other village offices. Nebraska villages typically conduct elections in odd-numbered years, with the next regular municipal election scheduled for May 2025. Village Board members serve four-year staggered terms. Residents can learn about village candidates, ballot measures, and election dates through the Otoe County Clerk's office and local notices posted at the village office. Because the community is incorporated rather than unincorporated, residents participate in both village elections and county, state, and federal contests. Voters can locate their assigned polling place by contacting the Otoe County Clerk at (402) 873-9560 or checking the Nebraska Voter Registration Portal at www.nebraska.gov/apps/sos/voter-registration. Assignments are based on residential address and precinct boundaries. Small villages like this one are typically assigned to a single precinct with voting conducted at the community building or fire hall.
