[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]One of the major issues here is voting. There are so many people in Fairfax County that don't have kids or don't have kids in school/they're elderly. My parents are included in this and they vote every election. It sucks but they could care less about the schools and that's mainly because of awareness. They don't have children in school and same with their friends. I think if campaigns targeted this demographic more then you'd see better outcomes. [/quote] And, they don't pay attention to School Board. Many are just anti-Trump and voted straight Dem because of that. I'd be willing to bet that most did not know the policies of the Dem candidate for Commonwealth Attorney, as well as those of SB members. Do they know that Abrar is in favor of removing "the cream of the crop" from Langley? Getting rid of pupil placement for IB or AP because it is racist?[/quote] Well people in this demographic don't even care about what she's in favor for regarding schools. Even millennials without children don't care. That's the hard part here. There are thousands of voters this just doesn't impact. It sucks but it's the truth. My parents live in a neighborhood full of people 70 and up and I promise you they could care less about this stuff. Now maybe if people really campaigned and explained these issues but even then I'm not so sure. [/quote]
