[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I thought it was because the current person holding seat didn’t announce she was retiring until after the deadline. Anyhow, Rhonda Henderson has my vote![/quote] Yes, the previous Ward 4 State Board member Lannette Woodruff resigned her post effective July 31st which was too late for new candidates to complete required paperwork to appear on the ballot for Nov. 6th. Nobody goofed, it’s just an unfortunate situation of bad timing. Agreed that it will probably lead to lower turnout. The last time there was a special election to fill a vacant seat on the State Board of Education, it was in 2014 for the Ward 8 seat. The winner of that contest had 813 votes compared to 733 for 2nd place. Especially with 4 candidates in the mix, every vote counts for this special election, so be sure to tell your Ward 4 friends and neighbors to learn about the candidates and vote![/quote]
