[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Initially we were going to vote for Wilson (for a change) even though we don't really like either candidate.  However all of the publicity about the PY issue has changed our opinion of him so now we're going to vote for Silberberg.

We have significant concerns about Wilson's behind-the-scenes activities and it doesn't seem like he can be trusted.  We are concerned that his actions will belie his words with ACPS funding just as they did with the PY and the Metro.

And despite the PP's adamancy to the contrary, we have read statements in a variety of places indicating that Wilson is not open to listening to input from citizens.  That is not acceptable to us.

We wish there were better options but it will be Silberberg for us this time around.[/quote]

So you’re going to choose someone who is on the record as voting against ACPS?  Makes no sense.  Better to write in someone if you don’t like Wilson.[/quote]

Voting against increased funding is not voting against ACPS.  When ACPS proves that it can improve its spending patterns and do a better job with what it has then it should get increased funding.

Wilson has proven by his actions with the PY issue that he cannot be trusted and that he makes bad decisions.  He has proven by his actions that he has the personality where he would much rather be part of a small clique of cronies rather than representing the citizens of Alexandria.  Why would we want to put him into the mix with a school board that already makes bad decisions?  That would be incredibly foolish and would not serve ACPS well.[/quote]

You’re delusional.  So many school buildings are in a desperate state, and new facilities are required.  A vote against school funding is most certainly a vote against ACPS.  There’s no way to spin this.
