Hamilton County: Matthews’ replacement will be on November ballot
Voters will choose Debra Matthews’ school board replacement during the general election on Nov. 4, officials confirmed today.
According to Tennessee Code, the now-vacant District 4 seat on the Hamilton County Board of Education does not require a special election and can simply be placed on the Nov. 4 regular ballot.
“I have conferred with attorneys locally and in-state,” said Charlotte Mullis-Morgan, chief deputy of the Hamilton County Election Commission. “Everybody’s in compliance with it. This is just how it has to be.”
Mrs. Mullis-Morgan said she has received no calls about the position, and no one has turned in a petition to run for the office.
Interested candidates can pick up paperwork now, and must turn it back in to the election commission by noon on Sept. 10, she said.
