Not a citizen? You can still vote in school board elections — including the recall

Noncitizens got the right to vote in the city’s school board elections through a 2016 ballot measure aimed at helping immigrant parents have a say in their children’s education. That measure was recently made permanent, with a specific note that it applies to the upcoming school board recall election too. Amos Lim, parent of an SFUSD student, noncitizen voter and economic justice program manager at the nonprofit Chinese for Affirmative Action, walks us through the process of registering and voting, and reflects on how stakeholders can influence policy through the ballot box.
