Wednesday, November 6, 2024 12:49AMThey are down ballot races, but history is being made Tuesday as Chicago residents elect 10 school board members for the first time.
The CTU also has a big hand in try to elect members. According to campaign finance disclosures, eight of CTU's 10 backed candidates have raised the most money. In addition, CTU and union-supported groups have poured close to $2 million into the races."You should be able to just knock on doors and go to forums and make phone calls for school board elections. You should not have to spend hundreds and 1000s of dollars as a candidate to get your voice out," Davis Gates said.
"I was disappointed to see some of the materials put out by the Chicago Teachers Union tying certain candidates that were independent, strong Democrats to MAGA and Trump 2024 everyone knows that's not the case," she said.
