Seems there should be a special election for both seats at the same time as otherwise the county will have to shell out 2X as much money (the last special election supposedly cost the county about $250K). [/quote]

The 89th District in VA had a special election when Delegate Jay Jones resigned.  Candidates were chosen by caucus - in that case all Democrats registered to vote in the district could vote in a drive through caucus. http://www.norfolkdemocrats.org/89th-house-district-nominating-caucus-for-the-january-11-special-election/

I guess Fritsch will be the state based on Mackay and Beyer.  In FX for school board non-partisan you had to pay to join to pick candidates for the election ballot.  Arlington you don't have to pay.

It really is amazing that 216 people or rather 62% of that or 134 people living in the Providence District resulted in Frisch on the FCPS school board. Billion dollar plus budget.  Over 52% of our local property taxes.  Now he's being given a seat in the VA House of Delegates. https://www.blueview.org/2019/04/24/karl-frisch-wins-providence-school-board-endorsement-by-wide-margin/

It really is time for this state to go partisan on school boards so we get primaries.  So 134 people [political hacks?] gave this county Frisch instead of Jung Byun, who has a degree in STEM-works with data, was on FCPS career and tech committee:

Byun was a far superior candidate to Frisch for the Providence School Board seat.  Frisch has been nothing but a total embarrassment for the FCDC ever since he was elected.  The text messages discovered by the plaintiffs in the TJ litigation revealed that other SB members (for example, Pekarsky) viewed him as dishonest.  He certainly hasn’t served any of his constituents well, apart from his friends who wanted to preserve the dog park. [/quote]

I posted the article from blueview on how Frisch got on the FCPS school board.  Apparently a party operative was preferable to the FCDC.  If all Democrats in the Providence District had the opportunity to choose Byun or Frisch in a caucus or [if law changed]...

Frisch will now move higher and here are people who endorse him:  https://karlfrisch.com/endorsements/[/quote]
