Referendum: Expand school board and elect some members by district
	Minneapolis voters were deciding whether to expand the city's school board from seven to nine seats with three elected citywide and six elected by districts, similar to the city's Park and Recreation Board. All are now elected citywide. If approved, the plan would be phased in over two voting cycles. Proponents argued it would increase board members' accountability to residents throughout the city.
