[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Are the races this nutty everywhere???  Is it common for a political party to endorse school board candidates?  We are just starting to pay attention to the APS stuff bc our kids will be going soon.  I’m kinda scared![/quote]

I have no idea how the SB races are elsewhere, but I'm scared this time, like you.  We've never had such a race before; a "normal" candidate is missing.   Miranda Turner seems to have a lot of devoted fans and a lot of abject haters.   I don't know what to believe.  
Antonio is barely a college graduate with no family here, nor any ties to APS or Arlington at all.   He's from California -  no experience, but high political ambitions, likely also no intention of staying here.  [/quote]

I don't think Miranda has too many devoted fans, just the ones in her APE base. They are very loud (and active on DCUM!), so they come across as more than they are. Miranda would not have a prayer against an actual normal candidate. She lost overwhelmingly to Mary Kadera and she didn't even try to run against Bethany Sutton.

But against Angelo, who knows. [/quote]
