www.GoodMorningGwinnett.com With Gwinnett County school board member Everton Blair running for state school superintendent, candidates are lining up to run for his seat on the Board of Education.

At least three candidates have emerged with plans to run for the District 4 seat that Blair currently holds. Blair's term concludes at the end of this year and the winner of the nonpartisan school board election on May 24 will take his place starting in 2023.

The school board races had previously been set to be partisan races, with primaries in the spring and a general election in November. That changed last week when Gov. Brian Kemp signed legislation moving the school board to nonpartisan elections starting this year, however.
