I agree. [b]Normally, people _endorse_ a candidate[/b], instead of coming out against a candidate. On top of that, have council members and the county exec ever gotten involved at this level in a BOE election, and before the primary? It hasn't happened before that I can remember. It puts them in a bad light. I'm glad I voted Austin. When this much of the "establishment" specifically targets him out of 15 candidates, then you know he must have them shaking in their boots.. which is exactly what they need.[/quote]

They've endorsed candidates. They've done so in the past, and they're doing it in this election too.

Also, the reason these elected officials are elected officials is that the voters chose to elect them. So calling them "the establishment" is kind of odd. I expect that a large majority of county voters voted for at least one of the elected officials on this list in 2018.

What's more, the elected officials on the list span basically the entire spectrum of political opinion among elected officials in the county. It doesn't include the Republican Party political opinions, of course, because the Republican Party in the county can't get more than a third of the voters in the county to vote for their county candidates.

And it's also a fact that there is no plan for cross-county busing.[/quote]
