[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Future of public school education and AAP is dependent on Nov 2021 VA governor elections. 
I am a Democrat and prefer Democratic government fir the country. But for local and VA elections I will vote Republican. [/quote]

+  10000000

Same here.[/quote]

I am not sure how that's going to help, though. Every single Republican governor has happily used NoVA like an ATM for the rest of the state. Democrats in VA aren't much better but at least they know where their bread is buttered. I'm not convinced any Republican on the ballot cares even a tiny bit about academics in FCPS. Now, if they started talking about adjusting the LCI in NoVA's favor, I'd be all over it.[/quote]

Many of us have worked very hard pestering Washington Post and other writers to get the VMPI proposal some publicity and make the candidates address it.  The recent Jay Mathews article is the best example of it I can recall:  https://www.washingtonpost.com/local/education/fairfax-county-schools-math-classes-tracking/2021/04/29/197aa29c-a7a2-11eb-8d25-7b30e74923ea_story.html
Unless and until a democrat comes out firmly AGAINST the VMPI I will hold my nose and vote for republicans this election, especially locally.  At least they are taking a firm stand on this.  As a parent of a 1st and 3rd grader it is my most important issue right now.[/quote]

I would hold my nose and vote Republican too in local and state election. Democrats are doing a great deal of damage to education. [/quote]

Are there local R candidates who talk about real issues without bringing up Trump and his "stolen" election?[/quote]

All of them.

The VA candidates are focused on education.[/quote]
