Today is fifteen days till November v****g.
For a great majority of citizens, they pay scant attention to their local candidates. Why this is so confounds my pea brain.
In almost all instances, state and local laws impact you much more quickly. City/county councils meet and laws/ordinances go into effect within ninety days. The same is applicable with state/Commonwealth legislation.
Have any of you completed your due diligence on your local candidates? Do you know where their e******n funding is coming from? As an example, an individual running in Georgia has 75% of their funding coming out of California. Do you know what their background is? Do you know what organizations they are part of? Do you know anything about their staff? You do realize staff have great influence on a candidate.
Our county elects judges. I once took a week and sat in every judges courtroom to see their demeanor, rulings, etc. One never knows when they will see one of these folk.
In the name of our great Republic, PLEASE carefully scrutinize school board candidates!! First, these apparatchiks directly impact your children/grandchildren. Further, it is, often, their first step in the political ladder. One of our worst state delegates, ever, started on a school board.
You have your assignment. The due date for completion is the day you walk into your v****g precinct and cast your b****t. Please do not receive a failing grade.

I actually DO try to keep up with local candidates including school board members.
I'm not allowed to v**e in city e******ns, since I live outside of the city limits, but, I still try to keep up with them too.
I can v**e for the school board in the district that I'm taxed in which doesn't include AISD which is the city district.
Fortunately, my daughter is on the same page, and has my grandson in a charter school. And, at the rate he is going, he will graduate high school with a two year college degree as well.
Thank you for your call to action, AuntiE...every level of our "decision-makers" is being manipulated by those that wish The Republic ill. If you,the v**er, are looking at your b****t with indecision or doubt, v**e Republican. At worst it will buy you four years [ or wh**ever your local terms are ] of time to decide while your life continues to improve. At best it will keep the over-governing, power-hungry radical left out of your life while you educate yourselves as to what's at stake. God Bless America

HOME SCHOOL is the best remedy for this.

We do! For now.....we need to keep them!
But, on the other hand, it isn't fair for him to go there when other parents won't pay attention to their kids, or research the opportunities out there for them.
My daughter and son in law aren't wealthy by any means.
But since they don't suck at life, they have "white privilege".

I'm in a rather good situation. It doesn't take much research on the candidates because in a small town if you don't know a particular candidate, your neighbor or a friend most likely knows the candidate. As we go up the b****t it takes a little more research because the candidates are further removed from the v**er.

Absolutely agree, Auntie!!! If we clean up our local stuff we have a chance. Attend school board meetings! Attend village hall meetings. Know what is being decided in your community, cuz you'll be stuck with the results 😖
