2021 School Board Election

Summit Democrats are supporting Board of Education candidates who will represent Summit’s kids and educators—not some hidden agenda.

It may be an off-year election, but for Summit County students, it’s more important than ever.

This year, 9 candidates are running, some of whom won’t answer basic questions on topics important to our community. Support the candidates who have proven experience fighting for what’s best for kids, parents, educators, and taxpayers. Click here to learn more about voting in this election.

HELP SUPPORT THESE CANDIDATES! VOTE FOR ALL FOUR. (Funds raised by Summit Democrats are for candidate awareness and not authorized by any candidate or campaign.)
