Two newcomers, one returning member elected to school board
Eugene School District 4J welcomes new and returning school board members! Three 4J school board members were elected in the May 18, 2021 special election. Lane County Elections published the official final results of the election on June 7, 2021.
Judy Newman was re-elected to Position 3 over two other candidates, Tom DiLiberto and Bryan Costa.
Laural O’Rourke was elected to Position 2 over candidate Harry Sanger. Maya Rabasa was elected to position 6 over Dakota Boulette. They replace Anne Marie Levis and Jim Torrey, who opted not to run for reelection in 2021 after, respectively, 12 and 14 years of service on the school board.
Those elected will be sworn in and begin their four-year terms on July 1, 2021.
The Eugene School Board has seven members. The May 2021 election ballot included three school board seats: Positions 2, 3 and 6. Positions 1, 4, 5 and 7, held by Alicia Hays, Gordon Lafer, Martina Shabram and Mary Walston, will be on the ballot in May 2023.
The school board is elected from the district at large, not from geographic regions. Registered voters who live within the Eugene School District may vote on all 4J board positions on the ballot.
