Some context
LISD trustees approved calling a special election to fill the vacant Place 6 seat Aug. 25. The place was vacated when former trustee Buddy Bonner resigned in July to avoid a conflict with the district’s nepotism guidelines.
Place 6 is elected at-large meaning that anyone within LISD’s boundaries can cast ballots for the trustee position. LISD has a hybrid election system where places 1 through 5 are single-member districts while places 6 and 7 elected at-large.
