[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm voting for Kathleen and Paul.

Zuraya will win but we all know she'll be as useless as CDT and Priddy. Such a shame that ACDC runs this show otherwise Paul could have run as a Dem.[/quote]

I don’t love ACDC either but they didn’t stop Paul from seeking their endorsement. That was all him. [/quote]

The problem is your adamant need for the ACDC endorsement to support a candidate. Emblematic of the problem in the politics of our country as a whole.

[/quote]

PP here. My adamant need? lol, you know nothing about me. I just don't like misrepresentation. [/quote]

DP. He never said he was endorsed by the Dems. He said he is a Dem. Going through the machine doesn't make you a Dem. Just ask Miranda. [/quote]

hahaha, that's true. I hate that fake Dem Miranda is on the Board and was endorsed. I just think it's misleading that Paul is calling himself a Democrat, even though he didn't win, and didn't even run in the primary thing, whatever you call it. I don't remember anyone ever doing this ever. [/quote]

What should a person who is a registered Democrat, supports the Democratic platform, and votes for Democrats call himself?[/quote]

So you have just outed yourself as not even being from Virginia. If you were, you would know that you don't register by party in Virginia.

I was skeptical of Miranda's party affiliation. Why can't I be skeptical of Paul's as well? He didn't even try for the primary.  I would love a better way for Dems to prove they are real Dems.

[/quote]

Why are you so obsessed with party affiliation for local, non-partisan positions? And who or what do you think gets to determine/“prove” someone’s political affiliation?  Kind of nuts….[/quote]

Why are you so dismissive of it? With MAGAs crazies out there, it's more important than ever to me. [/quote]

NP here. Yes, party affiliation matters, but that is because it is an indicator of their likely future votes, their positions, their priorities, and their principles. Therefore, if Paul self-identifies as a Democrat that tells me what I need to know. I genuinely don’t care about his participation in an organized party selection process. I care a lot more about what he would be likely to do in that position [/quote]

And what is he likely to do? vote differently than all the other school board members which won't make any difference in the outcome of the vote?

You know I bet you also are the kind of person who has one of those yard signs about loving everyone and staunchly opposes missing middle because you don't want a group of undesirables moving into your neighborhood and possibly parking on the street but really it's ok for S. Arl because that's where those kind of people should be anyway....[/quote]

Wow. You don't know the first thing about me. But you did just tell us all a lot about yourself...[/quote]
