Filing period open for county elections

The candidate filing period for a place on the Nov. 5 ballot is now open for people hoping to run for the two open school board seats in the Portola Valley School District.

The countywide filing period began on July 15 and closes at 5 p.m. on Aug. 9, County Assessor Mark Church said in a press release. For offices without an eligible incumbent seeking re-election, the filing period is open for an additional five days and closes at 5 p.m. on Aug. 14.

In the Portola Valley district, it's not clear if school board member Brooke Day will seek re-election, but board member Gulliver La Valle has said he will not run.

This is the only race this fall in The Almanac's coverage area.

Candidates file at the Registration & Elections Division at 40 Tower Road in San Mateo. Go here for more information.
