Gregory Brenner, a data analyst, has withdrawn from the Third District Fayette School Board race.

Kathleen “Penny” Christian, Danny Anthony Everett, and Isaac Sebourn remain in the race.

“After discussing with my family and lots of consideration, I am announcing the withdrawal of my candidacy for School Board District 3 in Fayette County and endorsing Isaac Sebourn,” said Brenner. “I have met with Isaac and I believe he will provide the needed accountability, leadership, and integrity that is needed on the school board. Isaac is a devoted husband and father of three children that attend public schools in Fayette County.”

Two other Fayette school board seats, in addition to District 3, are contested in the November 5, 2024 election. Betsy Rutherford opposes incumbent Amy Green in District 5. In the 1st District, Monica Mundy is running against incumbent Marilyn Clark.

Departures in House create crucial Republican targets in the fight for majority control
After a tumultuous and unproductive session of Congress, nearly 50 House members decided either to not seek reelection or to run for a higher office this year, leaving Democratic vacancies in several tight races that could tilt control of the House to either party. Both Republicans and Democrats have had their fair share of turnover — with former House Speaker Kevin McCarthy, a Republican, the most prominent — but Democrats are also losing prodigious fundraisers who have successfully held off GOP challengers in recent years. With fierce competition raging over just a couple dozen seats, that's left Democrats relying on fresh faces to hold their ground, while Republicans sense openings in four races in Virginia, Michigan and California.
