Campaign cash pours into Carmel Clay School Board race

CARMEL, Ind. — Early voting in Carmel has seen a steady stream of ballots trickling in. But in the race to fill two seats on the Carmel Clay School Board, cash donations have been more of a geyser.

FOX59/CBS4 has reviewed the pre-election campaign finance reports for all four candidates and the two political action committees involved in the race, and found is a surprisingly high total for a school board contest: $187,000+.

The race involves competing slates of PAC-endorsed candidates.

Carmel Excellence was formed last year specifically targeting the two at-large seats in the upcoming election. One of the founders and chairman of the PAC, Erik Young, said the organization’s goal is to elect conservatives to the board.
