One person files for open school director seat

The race became candidate-less when the only candidate, Larry Crim, learned he didn’t live within the boundaries of Director District 4 and had to withdraw.

Gloria Hodge filed during a special filing period in early September for a seat on the Renton School Board that had no candidates in the Nov. 3 general election.

The race became candidate-less when the only candidate, Larry Crim, learned he didn’t live within the boundaries of Director District 4 and had to withdraw.

The incumbent, Denise Eider, had withdrawn her candidacy for re-election earlier.

There is one contested School Board race on the ballot, for District 3, pitting incumbent Lynn Desmarais and Larry Wright.

Incumbent Todd Franceschina is running unopposed in District 1.
