# §55.9. Coverage of political units within a county.


Where a political subdivision (e.g., a county) is determined to be subject to [section 4(f)(4)](/cfr/28/4.md?p=f-4) or [section 203(c)](/cfr/28/203.md?p=c), all political units that hold elections within that political subdivision (e.g., cities, school districts) are subject to the same requirements as the political subdivision.
