There’s a byelection this weekend to decide on a new school board trustee.

Two candidates are running to fill the vacancy left by former school district 68 board chair Charlene Mckay, who resigned in May.

On Saturday September 14th, from 8 am to 8 PM, voting will be held at the McGirr Elementary Gym, the Laydsmith Secondary Gym, the Cedar Secondary gym, and at the district Administration centre on Wakesiah Avenue.

There’s also a special voting day Thursday from 3 to 7 at the Gabriola Elementary School Gym, and on Friday at the District Administration Centre on Wakesiah Ave, Nanaimo

Midcoast Morning hears from the candidates.
