Jim Kinard is the Trustee Area 1 representative on the Ceres Unified Board of Trustees. Kinard sought another term on the board in 2015.[1] Because he ran unopposed, Kinard was appointed to his seat rather than listed on the ballot on November 3, 2015.[2]
Elections
2015
Opposition
Three of the seven seats on the Ceres Unified School District Board of Trustees were supposed to be up for general election on November 3, 2015. Due to lack of opposition, however, this election was canceled. If it had not been canceled, this election would have been held by district.[2][3]
Incumbents Jim Kinard, Faye Lane and Teresa Guerrero, representing Trustee Areas 1, 4 and 7, respectively, ran unopposed for re-election. All three of them were appointed to another term rather than appearing on the ballot.[1][2][4][5]
The 2013 school board election was also canceled due to lack of opposition.

Kinard reported no contributions or expenditures to the Stanislaus County Registrar of Voters in the election.[6]
