Tim Bauersachs

Greg Schultz

Al Gayzik

Three local unions have decided to throw their clout into the school board race in Hamilton.

The Regional Council of Carpenter's, Local #254 and SEIU Local #32BJ endorsed the slate of Al Gayzik, Greg Schultz and Tim Bauersachs this week. Those two endorsements make three along with the Hamilton Township Education Association.

But, given the timing of the election, it's uncertain how much of an effect these endorsements will have. The turnout for the presidential and other elections make it difficult to say what will happen to downticket races like this.
