Candidate filing period to open Jan. 18 for Lewisville and Argyle ISDs

Citizens interested in running for a spot on Lewisville ISD or Argyle ISD’s boards of trustees can file for candidacy beginning Jan. 18.

Places 6 and 7 will be on the ballot for LISD. Both seats are three-year terms.

Place 6 is held by Kristi Hassett, and Place 7 is held by Tracy Scott Miller, who serves as board president. While candidates run for specific places, they represent the district at large instead of specific geographical areas.

The AISD election will include places 1, 2 and 3.

Craig Hawkesworth serves as Place 1 trustee. Place 2 is held by John Bitter. Place 3 is held by Sam Slaton, who serves as board president.

The filing period for both boards ends Feb. 17.

The last day to register to vote in this election is April 6. Early voting will begin April 24. The election will be held May 6.
