Chen did not file to run for re-election, ensuring at least one newcomer would join the board. Kwok faced five challengers: Herbert Chin, Jeffrey De La Torre, Dionicio Guido, Klaus Hornell and Martin Medrano.[2] Kwok won his bid for re-election, and Medrano won the open seat.[1]

Craig Liu originally filed to run in this election, but he withdrew from the race.[6]

Funding

At the time of this election, the Los Angeles Registrar-Recorder/County Clerk did not publish school board candidate campaign finance reports online. Ballotpedia staffers requested this information, but the only free method of viewing the files was at their office.

The Los Angeles Registrar-Recorder/County Clerk targeted the end of 2018 to make school board candidate campaign finance reports available online for free. From that point forward, Ballotpedia began including campaign finance data for Los Angeles County school board candidates.[7][8][9]

The first campaign finance reporting deadline was September 24, 2015, and the second one was October 22, 2015. If candidates raised or spent more than $1,000 from a single source, including their own funds, between August 5, 2015, and November 2, 2015, they had to file a campaign finance report within 24 hours.[10]
