This didn’t turn out so good;
Incumbents Linda Heerde and Mike Knudson held onto their seats on the five-member board, beating out Jennifer Greco.
Greco, who entered the race in part over concerns that high school students in the traditional learning program are treated unfairly compared to students in the district’s controversial customized learning program, pulled in 229 votes.
Knudson netted 425, and Heerde led the pack with 494 votes.
As I warned, when you are a single issue candidate, people see thru your whiny stances and dismiss you. While I will applaud anyone willing to run for public office, I encourage you to get your poop in a group and study ALL the issues, instead of blathering away on Facebook about how your little Johnny isn’t being taught properly.
In other words, if one runs for the City Council, you shouldn’t run just because you’re mad that they are going to build a Walmart near your home, right? (When did that ever happen?) 😉
Your principle can also be applied to involvement with political parties too. Don’t join or become more involved with a party just because of your pet issue or agenda. To be a responsible partisan, you need to be “Full Service.”
