Who are these people? All we have seen is incumbent Harris from At-large - a cheerleader of or peace keeper to Central Offfice; incumbent Smondrowski in District 2 - occasionally asking questions and clarifications; incumbent Evans in District 4 - how does her voice sound don't know.

Smondrowski an incumbent

Zimmerman sounded very good on the LWV Youtube. She is a current second grade teacher. I was not impressed by any of the others, including Smondrowski.

Agree and I'd be fine getting rid of Smondrowski if there was a decent alternative but there isn't.
