<span style="font-size: larger;">The outcome of the State Board of Education race on the Nov. 4 will profoundly impact Michigan&rsquo;s education policies on issues ranging from charter public schools to teacher and school district performance evaluations.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: larger;">Democrats currently control the board with a 6-2 majority. If both Carl and Williams were to be elected it would change that to a 4-4 balance; any other result will leave the Democrats in charge.</span><br />
