[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]are the republicans going to find a way to not nominate a nut job for governor? [/quote]

I’m the op and a very liberal dem. I’ve lobbied in Richmond for gun control so it make me so sad the current state of affairs. BUT my kids need school 5 days a week. I’ll hold my nose and vote for the Gov and party that will do that. [/quote]

you'd have to rewrite state law to give the governor that power over local school boards- do you really think that conservative republicans, worry of population growth in NOVA tipping state power permanently in the future, are going to support a measure that removes that autonomy and hands it to the governor? [/quote]

Are you saying the gov doesn’t have the power to order schools open? I get local districts have a lot of power over curriculum, instruction, calendars, etc. but northam was able to shut all schools. At APS SB meetings, Duran has said the only one that could overrule his decisions was northam. Is that not right? Genuinely asking. [/quote]

he can shut them as a health measure, he can allow them to open. He cannot force them to open [/quote]
