District 5 Race
Amy Jensen narrowly defeated conservative board member Kathy Bond in a District 5 race that focused heavily on Wichita’s failed bond issue.
Bond was the only board member to oppose the $450 million bond issue, which voters narrowly rejected in February.
Jensen campaigned in favor of another bond issue to rebuild and repair schools.
“I think public education won tonight,” Jensen said. “I ran on the premise that public education is a good thing, and we need to do everything we can to support our kids and our teachers, and I feel like the voters agreed.
