Summary

The joint resolution changes the state constitution to remove the rule that school elections must be scheduled separately from partisan elections. By allowing school contests to coincide with other elections, the timing of school board and other school‑related votes could be aligned with general elections, potentially affecting voters, candidates, and election officials. The amendment will be placed on the ballot for voter approval at the next general election or a special election called for that purpose.
