The Little Cypress-Mauriceville CISD has a contested school board race for the Place 2 seat being vacated by David Jones. Barry Bates and Kevin Abernathy have filed for the spot. Also, two incumbents have filed for re-election. They are Randy McIlwain in Place 1 and Marlene Courmier in Place 3. They have no opponents as of Tuesday afternoon.
In the West Orange-Cove CISD, two at-large positions are up for election. Candidates do not file for individual seats, but instead, the two candidates with the most votes will get the two positions.
Incumbent Ruth Hancock and Tricia Stroud are the only two to file as of Tuesday. One of the two open seats was held by Sarah Jefferson-Simon, who passed away last month.
Filing for the May 6 elections will end Friday at 5 p.m.
