Three Incumbents from South Baton Rouge Seek Reelection to EBR School Board Nov. 6
Three incumbent members of the East Baton Rouge Parish School Board representing parts of South Baton Rouge found themselves with opponents when qualifying closed on July 20. Each one faces a lone opponent in the Nov. 6 primary.
Newly-elected school board member Mike Gaudet, a Republican, faces opposition, as does former school board president Evelyn Ware-Jackson, a Democrat, and veteran Republican member Jill Dyasson of Southeast Baton Rouge. Charter school corporations are reportedly opposing some incumbents and plan to spend $60,000 to $100,000 each. It marks the first time that charter school forces have entered the political world here.
