SANTA ANA, Calif.—A judge is settling an ongoing dispute between Orange County’s education officials regarding who has the authority to determine local school districts’ election boundaries for the primary election in June.
The Orange County Board of Education, the Orange County Committee on School Districts, and the Orange County Registrar’s office appeared in front of Judge Gregory Lewis on Feb. 15 to settle which agency—the board or the committee—has the power to decide which voting map to use for the June 2022 election, where the board’s next group of trustees will be elected.
