Elections
2017
Four of the seven seats on the Pasadena Unified School District Board of Education were up for primary election on March 7, 2017. In her bid for re-election to District 1, incumbent Kimberly Kenne defeated challenger Rita Miller. District 3 incumbent Adrienne Ann Mullen lost her re-election bid against challenger Michelle Richardson-Bailey. The race for the District 5 seat featured incumbent Elizabeth Pomeroy and challenger Matthew Baron. Pomeroy won another term on the board.
