Spring elections

Jonathan Curtis and Melinda Lemke defeated Amber Cox and Jeff Nelson for two at-large seats on the seven-member Wrightstown Community School District Board of Education in Wisconsin on April 1, 2025. Lemke received 28.7% of the vote, Curtis received 25.4%, Cox received 23.3%, and Nelson received 22.7%.[1] Curtis and Lemke ran a joint campaign for the two seats up for election, with the slogan "TLC for WCSD" meaning "Together for strong schools Lemke Curtis."[2] All four candidates were on the same ballot, and the two who received the most votes won. The board's seven members serve three-year terms in at-large seats.

The Wrightstown Community School District covers Outagamie and Brown counties in the Green Bay area of Wisconsin. During the 2023 school year, 1,320 students attended one of the district's three schools.

The school board race happened against the backdrop of a recall campaign against school board president Angela Hansen-Winker. School board member Rayn Warner filed the petition, which alleged that Hansen-Winker misused the board's legal counsel and investigated former superintendent Andy Space without board approval.[3] Click here to read more about the Hansen-Winker recall.

Cox earned a bachelor's degree in psychology and human development and worked as a director of employment staffing at the time of the election.[4] Curtis earned a bachelor's degree in physics and a master's degree in mechanical engineering and worked as a strategic planning manager at the software company Aspen Tech at the time of the election.[2][5] Lemke earned a bachelor's degree in education, a master's degree in education, and a master's degree in library and information science. She worked in education for 25 years.[2] Nelson earned a bachelor's degree in history and political science and worked as a business owner.[5]

Curtis and Lemke supported the recall against Hansen-Winker. The Green Bay Press Gazette's Nadia Scharf wrote that Lemke, Warner, and a third board member, Tiffany Van Vreede, "alleged Hansen-Winker relied on the district’s lawyer for personal use, racking up taxpayer-funded legal fees over twice the district’s legal budget for 2024-25."[3] According to Scharf, Lemke also said "Hansen-Winker has ignored her requests to discuss requiring board approval before obtaining legal services."[3] Curtis said, "Angela was an awesome school board member and when she became president this year things kinda of took a turn."[6]

According to Scharf, Cox told the Press Gazette that "she supports the board’s decisions around former Superintendent Andy Space’s investigation and retirement, which is one of the reasons behind a recall petition filed against Hansen-Winker."[7] Nelson said, "When issues arise, the board is obligated to consult with attorneys, and we should listen to their guidance. I believe the board acted appropriately and effectively to get ahead of the issue."[5]

Curtis and Lemke's campaign website stated, "Why vote for us? Because we don’t run with personal agendas. It’s about caring for everyone—not our own beliefs. We are for the students, staff, and community. We listen, research, and do what is best."[2] Cox and Nelson each pointed to communication as a priority. Cox said, "We've got a great foundation to build on. My first priority is simple: Listen to the community, restore trust, replicate what has gone well and focus on enhancements that optimize student success."[5] Nelson stated on his campaign website, "I will strive to restore trust between parents and the school board by working to build a positive and open communication channel between the community and the school board."[8]

Summer and fall elections

Four seats in Maine School Administrative District 40 were up for election on June 10, 2025. Incumbents Randy Kassa and Danny Jackson were re-elected, while Timothy Wood defeated incumbent Erik Amundsen, and Richard Butler defeated incumbent Julie Swindler after a recount affirmed Butler’s one-vote victory.[45][46]

This district included the towns of Warren, Waldoboro, and Union. Members were elected to three-year terms on the 16-member board.[47]

Bangor Daily News' Jules Walkup wrote before the election, "A decade ago, little attention would have been paid to school board races in many parts of Maine. But RSU 40 has turned into a battleground over some of the hot-button social issues — especially around gender— that emerged during the early days of the COVID pandemic and have taken on new weight since President Donald Trump made them a central part of his new administration."[48]

According to the Penobscot Bay Pilot's Sarah Masters, the district created guidelines that included "addressing students by their preferred name and pronouns, permitting them to use the locker rooms and restrooms that most closely match their gender identity, and developing a support plan for the student."[49] The plan was implemented in 2018 and amended in 2023, adding a section that set the policy so that an administrator would have to discuss with the student before disclosing the student's gender identity to their parents.[49]

On June 6, 2024, the board voted 8-8 to repeal the district's student gender policy. As the district used weighted voting, giving more voting power to members from more populous towns, the weighting favored the members voting to repeal the gender policy. Bangor Daily News's Jules Walkup wrote, "supporters of the policy say that it helps marginalized students to feel more welcomed and gives staff more guidance about how to support them, while the board members opposed to the policy have argued that it undermines families and isn’t necessary given state protections for transgender people."[50] On August 1, 2024, after an election that shifted the balance of power to a liberal majority, the board voted to reinstate the policy.[51][52]

Richard Butler defeated Julie Swindler for one of the Warren seats.[46] Swindler, who served on the board since 2019, voted against repeal and in favor of restoring it. She said the rules were helpful to transgender youth and did not affect state law: "Transgender individuals deserve to be treated with dignity and respect. These actions were largely symbolic, as school boards do not have the authority to override state law."[53][54] Richard Butler was a military veteran and worked for the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs.[55] Butler opposed the guidelines and wrote in a Facebook post, "[M]y biggest concern is the lack of immediate parental notification if a child wants to change their name or gender identity."[56]

In the other Warren seat, the incumbent Randy Kassa won re-election unopposed.[45] He voted to repeal the policy in June 2024, but said he did not intend to vote for any more changes.[48]

Incumbent Danny Jackson defeated Sonja Sleeper for the Waldoboro seat.[45] Jackson, who had been on the board since 2012, supported the district’s policies and said, "I support current state law. I would not want to have the current policies changed."[57] Sleeper did not publicly share her position on the policies.

In the Union seat, Timothy Wood defeated incumbent Erik Amundsen.[45] Amundsen opposed the repeal and supported the district's policies.[58][54] Wood previously ran for a seat on the board in 2024 and opposed the policies during that campaign.[54]

The towns in the district voted for Donald Trump (R) in 2024, but also voted for Democratic-caucusing Sen. Angus King (I).[48]

Historical election data

Methodology note: This report does not include write-in candidates unless an incumbent ran as a write-in.

From 2018 to 2024, Ballotpedia covered elections for 6,060 school board seats in 2,070 districts. Ballotpedia normally covers school board elections in the 200 largest school districts by student enrollment and the school districts that overlap the 100 largest cities by population. However, in 2019, we also covered all school districts up for election in the state of North Carolina. Those districts are included in this data.

We found that between 24% and 40% of elections were unopposed each year, that incumbents won between 51% and 61% of seats each year, and that between 79% and 89% of incumbents who sought re-election won each year.

Details on each year's election statistics can be found in the table below.

Seats won by incumbents and newcomers

Incumbents won a larger percentage of seats in the 2018 school board elections compared to the 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022 elections, 2023, and 2024.

Incumbency success rates

Incumbents who ran against challengers in 2019 had a higher contested success rate than those who ran against challengers in 2018, 2020, 2021, 2022, and 2023. Incumbents in 2019 also had a higher overall success rate compared to the other four years.
