[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]One of my biggest reasons for voting for Turner is how accessible she has made herself during this campaign.  She has done so many "coffee with the candidate" events during this campaign (outdoors, with masks) so people can ask her questions directly and hear her views.  She has done so even though she knows not everyone is a supporter, and that she could be opening herself up to some pretty unpleasant encounters (I personally witnessed her handle one with a lot of grace, kindness and empathy).  One of my biggest issues with the school board for a while has been how difficult it seems to be to interact with them directly.  The rotation of open office hours mean there are very limited opportunities to talk to a specific board member directly, and they tend to be unresponsive to emails.  I am hopeful that Turner would bring a new spirit of openness and accessibility to the board.

Also, she and I overlapped at law school, and I remember she being really smart and sharp.  I think she would bring strong critical thinking skills to the board. [/quote]

Agreed.

I am a Green Valley resident and have engaged with Miranda on issues beyond the schools. I have found her to be exceptionally engaged, thoughtful, and sharp. She is a team player who shows up. I have found her to be resilient and kind even in the face of hostility and adversity. Was happy to vote for her earlier this week and have my fingers crossed for her. [/quote]
