Orange Unified School Board Trustees Madison Miner and Rick Ledesma, both Republicans, have been kicked out of office by voters in a recall election this month a move that could make way for a liberal leaning majority on the dais.
Its the first successful recall effort in the district since 2001, according to district spokeswoman Hana Brake.
Recall efforts kicked off against the two with support from parents and teachers in January 2023 after Superintendent Gunn Marie Hansen was abruptly fired.
Organizers also took aim at their support over a transgender notification policy, suspension of a library app, and allowing a charter school to mortgage an old junior high.
