Teachers union-backed candidates sweep mayor's picks in Sac City Unified

Published: 1 years 199 days ago

Sacramento Bee:  There won't likely be a significant shift in ideologies on the Sacramento City Unified School District board as a result of this week's election.

The teachers union, which backed all three winning candidates, is fine with that.

Mayor Kevin Johnson, who got behind three unsuccessful candidates, is not.

A sweep by candidates endorsed by the Sacramento City Teachers Association means that all seven members of the Sacramento City Unified School District board are backed by the union – just as they were before Tuesday.

Union-supported candidates Ellyne Bell (Area 1), Jeff Cuneo (Area 2) and Darrel Woo (Area 6) all were headed for victory Wednesday, with thousands of ballots left to be counted. All three were poised to defeat Johnson's picks.
