Plurality or Majority: Who Decides for School Board
The Pasadena Independent School District faces a policy choice about electing trustees by plurality or majority with runoffs. A proposal by Trustee Handrick to require a majority, or a runoff if no majority, is debated amid past close races. Supporters call it more democratic, while opponents warn of higher costs and delays. The board weighs public feedback and compares Deer Park and La Porte ISDs, where runoff systems exist or do not.
