Comal ISD cancels board election, certifies unopposed candidates

Digging deeper

Section 2.052 of the Texas State Election Code dictates that the board must certify when candidates are running unopposed, according to the Texas Constitution.

The certification is also in accordance with Section 2.053, which effectively cancels the election and declares the candidates as elected to office, according to the constitution.

What’s next

A copy of the cancellation order will be posted on election day at each polling location in compliance with state law, according to board documents.

CISD board members are elected to three-year terms, with staggered elections being held in May. Board members will be sworn in following the election, according to the district's website.
