2022 Durham NC school board election

About

Five registered Republicans are challenging three Democratic incumbents and one unaffiliated member; a fifth board member is not seeking reelection.

"Better Schools" refers to the Republican-backed "Better Board, Better Schools" initiative

This year's school board election has been targeted for takeover (as have others across the country) by anti-education, anti-democratic interests with GOP backing, who have put forward a slate of far-right candidates under the slogan "Better Board, Better Schools". Because of the officially "non-partisan" nature of this race (as set by state law, which has nonetheless been selectively countermanded in some GOP-heavy counties but not in any that lean Democratic), liberal and progressive voters who often default to Democratic candidates may accidentally vote for one or more of these wingnut ringers, as some of them sound very plausible on the surface.

It is therefore important to know who is who in this race.
