S 1020: Lexington County School Board Partisan Elections

This bill requires school trustee elections in Lexington County School Districts 1, 2, and 4 to be partisan starting in 2028, meaning candidates will run with political party labels. Under the new rules, candidates must participate in both primary and general elections following state election laws, and current nonpartisan trustees must declare their political affiliation if they wish to continue serving. The change applies to all future terms beginning in 2028, while existing trustees whose terms extend beyond that date may remain in office but must disclose their party affiliation.
