While it’s not clear that ballot order has a significant impact, in a crowded field of 7, it can’t hurt to be first.
But it takes some doing to figure it out.
So LA School Report has un-scrambled the randomized alphabet drawing procedure the California Secretary of State used to determined the ballot order in the LA Unified School Board special election.
Here is the Certified list of Candidates from the City Clerk’s Office.
Here’s the lineup as it will appear on the ballot:
George McKenna – Retired Principal/Superintendent
Hattie McFrazier – Retired Educator/Counselor
Omarosa Manigault – Teacher/Children Advocate
Genethia Hudley-Hayes – Education Consultant
Rachel Johnson – Educator/Gardena Councilmember
Alex Johnson – Education Policy Advisor
Sherlett Hendy Newbill – Teacher/Mother/Coach
