D.C. Caldwell is a local educator running to represent District 10 on the State Board of Education. He's branded himself a 'fusion' candidate, seeking the nominations of the Republican, Democratic, Libertarian and Green parties.

As Central Texas voters prepare for the March 5 primaries, they may notice something a bit unusual about a local State Board of Education race: one candidate's name appears on both the Republican and Democratic primary election ballots., said."I'd rather spend 90 percent of my time focused on what everyone says they agree on ... rather than spending 90 percent of my time focusing where people disagree passionately.

Another provision in the code prohibits a candidate from having more than one place on a ballot, which may or may not apply to Caldwell, depending on how successful he is in securing multiple party nominations, he added.
