Photo: Scott Calvert/The Wall Street JournalPLUMSTEAD TOWNSHIP, Pa.—Sexually explicit pamphlets, mysterious lawn signs with barbed slogans and accusations of lying have punctuated a partisan school board race in this Philadelphia suburb. Campaigning ends Tuesday, when voters will either keep the Republican majority or give Democrats the reins. At stake is control of the Central Bucks School District, Pennsylvania’s third-largest with more than 17,000 students. Hundreds of districts across the country will hold local school board elections Nov. 7, ahead of a 2024 presidential campaign that is expected to see education play a bigger role than in the past.

A woman told the BBC that tourists kept showing up at her house after a Booking.com error. Around 20 guests showed up in the last month, thinking her house was a holiday rental, she said. "We just need it to stop somehow," Arsenius told the BBC. The tourists who have turned up are from countries including Algeria, Canada, India, and the US, the BBC reported. The company told the BBC in a statement that scammers are behind the mistake and that it had removed the listing from its site.
