Anderson 2 school board elections change
This law changes how Anderson County School District 2 elects trustees. In 2026, Districts 1, 3, and 4 each elect one trustee from their own single-member district. In 2028, Districts 2, 5, and 6 do the same. One trustee is elected at large by all voters in the school district. Candidates for district seats must live in that district. All trustees serve four-year terms, and the top vote-getter wins (plurality). You vote for your district’s seat and the at-large seat. District lines follow map S-07-02-24 kept by the Revenue and Fiscal Affairs Office.
