I understand your point Bob Wells, the news media around here does a poor job. But, when you have a one party system and people continue voting the same way and expecting different results is sad in my opinion. I don't have the answers to the problems. This much I do know, the Superintendent of Education should be a non-partisan position, this is the first place I have ever lived that it is an elected position. I have always voted for the person I felt had the conviction to to do what is best for everyone and not tow the party line on every issue. Republicans have been in control of this county for the past two decades, they are the ones that should be held accountable for the counties problems.
