A school board candidate who filed to run for two different Crystal Lake school districts withdrew one of her candidacies earlier in the month, officials said.Kathy Goerges filed to run for both Crystal Lake Elementary School District 47 and Crystal Lake-based Community High School District 155 back in December. However, holding both seats is not allowed under state law, Illinois State Board of Elections Matt Dietrich said.As a result, Goerges had until Dec. 27 to withdraw from one of those races or she would be kicked off of the ballot for both‚ McHenry County Clerk Joe Tirio said at the time.
