How expensive is it to run for Board of Education?
I decided to look back at the previous campaign finance reports from candidates to total how much they have spent (individual campaigns) on the race during the 2022 election cycle – Looking back to transactions from January 13th – October 23rd (June, July August and October finance reports). Here is that summary of money spent by each candidate / campaign:
Keep in mind this is only looking at candidate campaign spending. This does not include the SLATE or MSEA/CCEA spending on this race.
Early voting is happening now (October 27th – November 3rd)
Election day is November 8th
