Three of nine seats on the Billings Public Schools board of trustees in Montana were up for by-district general election on May 2, 2017. The candidates in all three races were unopposed. Due to the lack of opposition the election was canceled, and the three candides were automatically elected. Incumbent Tanya Ludwig filed for re-election in District 1, and incumbent Janna Hafer filed for re-election in District 2. The High School District B incumbent chose not to file for re-election, and newcomer Russell Hall ran for the open seat.[1]
In addition to voting in the school board election, voters also decided on $2.56 million in tax levies. The $1.36 million elementary school levy passed with 15,152 votes for (50.87 percent) and 14,635 (49.13 percent) against the proposal. Unofficial results also reported that the $1.2 million high school tax levy was defeated by a margin of 354 votes—17,597 votes in favor of passing the levy and 17,951 votes against passing the levy.[2] Due to these close margins, the levy votes were too close to call, and Ballotpedia will continue to monitor the election results for updated information.
