Katy ISD trustees Rebecca Fox and Dawn Champagne were leading in early returns Saturday night against two PAC-backed challengers in the district's school board elections.
Fox and Champagne faced a somewhat bumpy road in their races, facing criticism rom conservatives for voting against a policy that requires teachers to out students or notify their parents when students asked to go by different pronouns. The presence of PACS in Katy ISD elections started roughly two years ago, when then-board candidate Victor Perez, who currently serves as board president, was endorsed by several conservative groups.
However, Campbell and Olson denied involvement with the PAC despite both candidates' names on the list of endorsements on the group’s website. Olson said he was not working with or raising money in conjunction with the group. He noted that as a candidate, he has no say in who supports his campaign.
