Four Baltimore City school board candidates advance to November election

Baltimore City residents have picked four candidates in the race for Board of School Commissioners to advance to the Nov. 8 general election. The final picks were finalized after weeks of ballot counting since the July 19 election. Eight candidates ran for two open positions on what will be a 12-member city school board, all of which are at-large positions created after state legislation that requires a hybrid board of elected and appointed members.
