RTC May Put Forth 4 Board of Ed candidates.
The Town charter allows a political party to nominate up to four candidates for the Board of Education, but only two of those can get elected. Traditionally, each party nominates only two. (The Democrats nominated three a few years ago.)
Well, even thought the DTC nominated only two candidates this year, the RTC may nominate four. RTC Chairman Jim Campbell told the RTC tonight that the RTC Executive Committee recommends that four Republican names be put on the November ballot. While the choice of the number of nominees will be in the hands of the full RTC in their July 20 meeting, the Executive Committee will endorse four on July 13, Campbell explained.
