Voting Plan

Voting Plan B: The plan would require electors within their respective districts to determine who should be placed on the ballot should there be a need for a primary election. If there is a need for a primary for the At-Large position, all eligible voters within the district shall vote to determine who should be placed on the ballot. Once district representative candidates are placed on the ballot, all eligible voters from the entire school district may vote for board members for each precinct and the at-large position.
