[quote=Anonymous]Bridget Westfall became a fed because of her work with children of incarcerated parents. She worked as a deputy juvenile officer in the family court in a Midwest state. She worked for years on a federal program for at-risk kids. On her website, she said she worked on federal grant programs. That is no different than any other federal employee. Also the School Board is supposed to be nonpartisan. Bridget ran as an independent. Because she had support from Republicans and she and her husband are viewed as conservative by the Maury and PTAC crowd, people tried to paint her as a fringe candidate, an outlier. Bridget fully admits she was in over her head and thought that school board was grassroots. People gave her bad advice because when they ran you didn't need a lot of funding. It was also a pandemic and it is hard to make a name for yourself in a pandemic door knocking. She didn't have the name recongition or resources. It was just her campaigning. I don't think Westfall will ever run for SB again. She felt the experience was very negative.[/quote]
