Candidate Corner

Every year, more and more LEE members—committed to ending educational inequity—are running for political office. We want to make sure you know who these candidates are and how you can learn more about them.

We have compiled this list of LEE member candidates, election dates, and links to their websites. To satisfy local reporting requirements we have added text in italics where necessary.

Please note that many of these candidates value volunteer support.
