In school board elections, conflict issues break along existing party lines, incumbents lose at higher rate

Since 2021, we’ve tracked school board elections where candidates took stances on the topics of race in education, COVID-19 responses, and sex and gender.

Our final analysis of the 1,779 seats up for election on Nov. 8 across 545 local school boards shows:

Candidates who supported measures like equity plans, mask requirements, and gender inclusion won 40% of these seats
Candidates who opposed those policies won 30%
Candidates whose stances could not be identified won 27%

Nearly one-third of incumbents lost to challengers in those races. Read the full report at the link below.
