I posted this on another thread that I think got buried becaus it was not today's thread. So I am re-posting
Someone had written
"We could also push on the Legislature to move school board elections to November, when more people go to the polls, as a rule."
I could not agree more...
The Primary's are a joke for the most part. I did not know that a school board only ballot even existed until I read this blog and I feel like I am somewhat up on politics. Maybe if more people know this for the next election we can get more voters to the polls for the primary elections. It kind of stinks when you have to go tell your neighbor that has every democrats yard sign possible in their front yard that you would like a republican ballot or vice versa.
I'm glad the word is getting out about the non-partisan ballot.
November would be so much better all around for holding school boards accountable.
Read the mooresville paper sat 5-8-10. sounds like Henson and Collins promised people alot more lies to get them to vote for them, guess they will find out the hard way.
