## On the ballot

- **Allan S Carver**
- **Mark Greenfield**

A nonpartisan office: candidates do not run as Democrats or Republicans, and no party appears on the ballot.

Allan S Carver led the June 2 primary with 42.6% and Mark Greenfield took 29.4%; neither cleared a majority, so the two meet again on November 3. This is a nonpartisan countywide office in one of California's least populous counties.

The county superintendent runs the Siskiyou County Office of Education. In a county this rural the office matters more than it would elsewhere: districts are small and widely separated, so services that a large district would run itself — special education, transport, curriculum support, fiscal administration — are frequently run at county level instead. The office also oversees district budgets and can intervene when one is in financial trouble.

One candidate appears in public payroll records as having held senior roles in the county education office itself; the other has no published record we could find. In a race with almost no coverage, that asymmetry in the available evidence is itself worth stating rather than papering over — it reflects what has been published, not the candidates' relative merits.

## Allan S Carver

Allan Carver already works inside the office they are running for. Public payroll records for the Siskiyou County Office of Education list them first as an assistant superintendent and, in the most recent year available, as county superintendent (Transparent California). No campaign website, questionnaire, or news profile describes their education, prior career, or how they came to hold that title.

No news coverage or campaign statement explains why they are running. The only documented fact available is the payroll listing itself: it shows them already holding the office's top title, after an earlier assistant-superintendent role, but it says nothing about performance, decisions, or how they reached the post. Siskiyou is a small, rural county, and this race has drawn almost no outside coverage of any kind.

Carver has not published a platform. No campaign website, candidate questionnaire, or news interview lists their priorities for the office.

**Strengths:** Documented senior experience inside the office itself, the most direct evidence available for a job like this.

**Trade-offs:** That evidence is a payroll listing, not reporting, so it shows their roles but nothing about their performance in them.

**Keep in mind:** No news outlet covers this race, and no campaign website could be located for them.

## Mark Greenfield

Mark Greenfield advanced to the November runoff for Siskiyou County Superintendent of Schools. No campaign website, candidate questionnaire, news profile, or public payroll record could be located that names their current job, education, or career history.

No source states why they are running, and no documented fact about their conduct or record in any office is available. Siskiyou's superintendent race has drawn almost no outside news coverage this cycle, so the absence here reflects what has been published rather than anything about them personally.

Greenfield has not published a platform. No campaign website, questionnaire, or news interview lists their priorities for the office.

**Strengths:** Greenfield forced a November runoff by keeping the leading candidate under a majority in the June primary.

**Trade-offs:** No published record of their background, career, or platform is available.

**Keep in mind:** No campaign website or news coverage of their platform could be located.
