Uniqueness of Director Area 6

As noted below, board members of some school districts in this Director Area are eligible to vote for candidates in the SBE’s western region, while board members of other districts may vote for candidates in SBE’s eastern region.

Runoff

Open Positions:

• SBE Eastern Region: Position 1*

There will be a runoff election for SBE Eastern Region: Position 1, due to the fact that none of the three candidates received more than 50% of the vote. The top two candidates will move forward to the runoff election. Those candidates are Bruce Drollinger and Ronnie Mabry.

A secure, encrypted ballot for this runoff election will be emailed to school directors who are eligible voters on Friday, October 27, 2023.
