[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Are there only three candidates?

Miranda and Erin are interchangeable. I don't like either of them at first glance. More of the same.

The child looks better and better. I don't care if he's not an APS parent. I care if he understands the system.[/quote]

This is obviously a plant from his campaign.[/quote]

All these conspiracy theories... No. I'm not a plant. I don't know him. I don't know the others either. And that's concerning given that a school board member plays a very important role in a community.

I should know their names. But I don't. I should have worked with them volunteer-wise for years and know exactly where they stand. But I don't.

I'm not voting for Miranda. Too divisive. Erin is inexperienced too. The only qualification I see is that she is actually an APS parent. But so are all of us. So it leaves Antonio. I hope he's got some chops.[/quote]

OK, if you are a real person I think you are being ridiculous. Arlington isn't huge, but it's big enough that it's unreasonable to expect to know everyone. And if you think he is qualified based on his tweet, I thought it was pretty pathetic. (I'm the one who looked up the actual staffing numbers.)

I don't know any of them directly, though I've met Miranda and I know people who know her, so that's the closest I have to a connection. I do know she's spent a lot of time the last few years paying close attention and asking good questions. Which, IMO, is basically what you want a school board member to do.

Establishment candiates, like this 22 year old, will not do that. They are party line all the way. This kid clearly just wants to be in politics. That does not get my vote.[/quote]
