Education races will be a highlight on the May 2 uniform election ballot for voters in several Bexar County-area school districts and the county’s premier community college district.
Voters on the Northeast Side will get to weigh in on a four-way race for the District 9 seat of the Alamo Colleges District Board and intriguing school board races are going on in North East ISD, Alamo Heights ISD, Southwest ISD and Medina Valley ISD.
Meanwhile, voters in Schertz-Cibolo-Universal City ISD, which includes some of Bexar’s East Side, will decide on whether or not to approve a $295 million bond proposal for big-ticket upgrades and technology.
The San Antonio Report’s comprehensive voter guide features profiles on every school board candidate, information on how to find who represents you and where to vote.
Early voting runs April 20 through April 28 for the May 2 elections. (Not to be confused with the May 26 primary runoff election.)
Voters can choose from any of these 19 early voting locations. Hours vary by date and location.
