District 8 Kansas State Board of Education candidate Charlie Wiggins has been booted out of the race because he'd already filed as a candidate for a local office. The State Objections Board upheld Secretary of State Ron Thornburgh's ruling that since Wiggins' had already filed to run for Minnehaha township trustee, he cannot run for the state board of education.

Wiggins faces no opposition in the township race. The remaining two candidates for the state board of education for that district are Walt Chappell and Dennis Hedke, both of Wichita.
