Okay. So? She doesn't have the signatures. It can't be changed now, couldn't be changed any time after the deadline. She'll do better next time.
Please re-read what I said. She did have the additional signatures in March (before the June 20th deadline), but they refused to accept them.
It's too late now.
She sounds like such a sore loser. No way do I want her anywhere near the school board at this point.
NP, sounds like she had enough signatures before the deadline, the elections office just didn't accept some them (which would have otherwise overridden the handful of errors).

When exactly? Why didn’t she get it right in the first place?

I’m pretty sure the D sample ballot had a sticker on it, also explaining she needed to be written in.
The Republican Party also had volunteers explaining the other side of the story. I do not feel like I went into the voting room uninformed.
I imagine they will do the same thing on Election Day.
Good for you. I voted weeks ago and will be disenfranchised.
That’s not what disenfranchised means. By your own admission, you were given the right to vote.

I was deprived of the right to vote for my school board rep in my district because they are trashing my vote. They should let early voters correct that vote or it's disenfranchisement.

With the new redistricting of West Springfield neighborhoods into Franconia district, that 3000 early vote total could mean 1500 for the democrat and 1500 for the republican, depending on which precincts the votes came from.
Yeeeah, except the West Springfield Precinct, the one that moved to Franconia District, tends to run 60/40 blue. And Franconia District as a whole tends to run very blue.
Okay, so maybe 1800 democratic voters.
This might be a very good thing for the Franconia district.
After years of democrat representation, their school quality has steadily fallen. It seems like Franconia's consistently democratic representation on the school board has been very ineffective at advocating for the Franconia district schools and interests.
Keep doing the same thing means you are going to keep getting the same results.
Having a new perspective and voice for Franconia, especially since on paper he appears to be far more qualified than she is, and clearly far more attentive to details in real life, is likely going to end up shaking things up for Franconia and actually giving them a voice and advocate.
Ineffective as defined by you. Not defined by the many voters who keep voting for a D and now have to be represented by this MAGA Tool because of voter disenfranchisement.
