The race
This school board election is on the November 3, 2026 general-election ballot in Alachua County School Board (Alachua County). 1 seat(s) are at stake in School Board District 1 - Nov 3 2026 runoff.
This is a November 3 runoff for District 1. Florida school-board races are decided in the August primary unless no candidate wins a majority; here, per Mainstreet Daily News, Hunter Miller took 46% and Plavac took 35% in August, so the top two meet again on November 3 and the higher vote total wins the seat.
The verified roster is: Hunter Miller; Plavac (first name not in source).
The candidates
Hunter Miller — Led the August primary field with 46%, per Mainstreet Daily News. No platform, occupation, or endorsement was verified in this pass.
Plavac — Took 35% in the August primary, per Mainstreet Daily News. The source names this candidate by surname only — the first name was not in the fetched reporting, and we print the roster exactly as sourced rather than guess it.
Pros / Cons
- Pro, for the field as a whole: every name printed above is on a sourced roster for this race — a voter can verify each candidacy from the source named below. Con, for the field as a whole: beyond the roster, no sourced record — no platform, no board votes, no named-organization endorsement aligned with parental rights, curriculum transparency, fiscal restraint, or school choice — was verified for these candidates in this pass. A ballot line is a candidacy, not a record, and we grade it as exactly that.
OUR CALL
Our call: insufficient record — no endorsement. What would earn one here: a published platform or a sourced record on parental rights, curriculum transparency, fiscal restraint, or school choice — or an endorsement from a named organization aligned with those values — verified claim by claim. On a roster alone, LiberalMind does not guess at what a candidate believes.
