Evolution Ping

The List-O-Links
A conservative, pro-evolution science list, now with over 380 names.
See the list's explanation, then FReepmail to be added or dropped.
To assist beginners: But it's "just a theory", Evo-Troll's Toolkit,
and How to argue against a scientific theory.

Copy of what I posted at the end of yesterday's thread:

Creationists in the election:

Dist. 1: Jesse Hall loses 37% to 63%, all the votes counted
Dist. 3: John Bacon wins with 49% in a 3-way race, all votes counted
Dist. 5: Connie Morris loses with 46% to 54% for Sane Sally Cauble, 99% of votes counted
Dist. 7: Ken Willard wins with 54% in a 3-way race, all votes counted
Dist. 9: Brad Patzer loses with 42% to 58%, all votes counted
Continually updated election results from AP, at the site of the Kansas City Star (the five school board election results are at the very bottom, so you have to scroll down): Election results.

Three creationists lose, including the vivacious Connie Morris, the fantasy lassie of the prairie. Be still my heart!

I was afraid that McDonald and Oliphant would split the vote in the 3rd district and that turns out to be what happened. Still this should tip the board back to the moderates and sanity.

I should point out that this has all happened before. Conservatives took over the board and introduced creationism and then in the next election the moderates took it back. But just two years later the creationists came back and took control again. This battle isn't over. It'll continue in 2008 and 2010 and 2012...
