The race
This school board election is on the November 3, 2026 general-election ballot in West Washington School Board (Washington County). 4 seat(s) are at stake in School Board (Brown Twp, Howard Twp, At-Large, Campbellsburg seats) - Nov 3 2026.
Four seats are up, elected by township and at-large constituencies, per the Washington County Times (lead grade): a Howard Township seat, a Brown Township seat, an at-large seat, and a Town of Campbellsburg seat — for which, the source reports, no candidate filed at all. We print the empty seat as an empty seat.
The verified roster is: Brandon K. Davis; Logan R. Hall (Howard Twp); Kyle Johnson; Tim Barksdale; Justin K. Elgin (At-Large); Evan Chastain (Brown Twp).

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. Per-seat, that includes the Campbellsburg seat, where the honest entry is the one the source gives: nobody filed.
