IPS school board candidate removed from ballot by election board
A candidate for the Indianapolis Public School Board was removed from running in the November election. The Marion County Election Board voted late last month to strike Terrencio Davis from the ballot for the District 2 seat.
A challenge to Davis’ eligibility was filed by Gayle Cosby, another candidate in the same district race. Cosby said Davis is ineligible to run because he does not live in the IPS district.
District 2 includes the Massachusetts Avenue passageway northeast of downtown and continues up through Pendleton Pike. A slice of District 2 extends east beyond the I-465 loop to North German Church Road.
“I filed the challenge because Mr. Davis is a resident of Lawrence Township, and requirements to become a candidate for any IPS board position require one year of residency in the district seat that is being sought,” Cosby said in an email to WFYI.
