Ron Crist withdrew from the race after a challenge to his candidacy.
Following a challenge made to his credentials for candidacy, Ron Crist dropped out of the race for a Paulding County School Board seat, according to Deidre Holden, supervisor of Paulding County Elections & Voter Registration, who spoke to Dallas-Hiram Patch just after 4 p.m. today. Crist had challenged District 3’s Kim Cobb; both had qualified as Republicans during last month’s qualifying period. Crist’s departure from the race means that Cobb is set to win another term on the board, as no others qualified for the Republican primary, nor did anyone seek the seat as a Democrat or independent. Return to Dallas-Hiram Patch later today for updates.
