[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Can someone please explain what "dark money" is? Or how these donations are "dirty"? I don't understand.[/quote]

I assume PP means a large number of the donors to a local school board election come from out of state; most of the money won’t actually be needed for or spent on Frisch’s campaign; and eventually most of the money will get recycled to other local candidates sympathetic to the agenda of the donors. He’s a crappy SB member but a useful bag man. [/quote]

That is not dark money.[/quote]

A large percentage of the donations to Frisch come from NY, California, Pennsylvania, Maryland, Illinois, and Texas.  That's quite unusual for a candidate running for a local School Board in Virginia.

He won't need but a small fraction of that money for a school board race.  He'll keep some for his next campaign and re-route some of it to other Democratic campaigns.  Then people may see the other candidate got money from Frisch, but not be aware of the source of Frisch's money.  It's legal but not necessarily ethical, and in any event he is a crappy School Board member who wastes taxpayer money while neglecting the needs of his constituents. [/quote]

Don't care. Why can't you talk about actual issues facing the school system? That's all Karl talks about.[/quote]

+1. These people know when we talk about the issues, Karl wins. People support the Dunn Loring school, the work being done to address learning loss, offering free access to therapy, raising teacher pay, banning guns from all school property, etc.[/quote]
