If you stand outside and ask for a write in vote and chat it up that the problem(s) in America start in the school, thinking people will actually vote for you.
I'm proof of the tactic.
Once inside with the other socialist, long in the tooth board members, word will get out that there's a new kid on the block ... you'll have a voice and an influence.
Hopefully ( I have been instrumental in one election of a born again Conservative), the school board can be taken over by the true community and not the sycophant rubber stampers now on too many school boards.
Remember ... Common core was voted on by thousands of school boards across the US
The unions have that game rigged as well.
The teachers in district “A” fund candidates to run next-door in district “B”, and vice-versa.
Then each returns the favor by voting “yea” on the entire union wish list.
