WOODBRIDGE, Va. — Democrat Lillie Jessie is heading to the Prince William County School Board.
She beat out appointed incumbent Michael Wooten with 43 to 31 percent of the vote. Lori Bauckman-Moore placed third in a sea of four candidates.
“You don’t go in half stepping, you give it everything you got,” Jessie told her supporters.
A retired school principal, Jessie spent 35 years in the Prince William County Public School system.
She will be the permanent replacement for Grant Lattin who stepped down from the Occoquan School Board seat last spring.
