For decades, political combatants under the hypnosis of leftist ideology have had a stranglehold on academia and the American education system. The largest teacher's union in the country advertises itself as non-partisan, but almost exclusively backs Democrat causes and candidates, and the culture of progressive thought so prevalent at the top trickled down, permeating all levels and spheres of education.
We've seen schools devolve from institutions of traditional learning into dens of fallacy and pedophilia. City governments paying adult men for sexual performances in front of children, revisionist history to promote a Marxist agenda, and school libraries housing books with themes like "underage drinking, fondling, masturbation, orgasms, oral sex, sexual intercourse, sexual abuse, statutory rape, incest, and rape" are commonplace. And parents have had enough.
Despite the claim that school board positions are politically independent, we all know that's obviously not the case — and on Tuesday night, Florida held early elections, where, arguably, the most consequential victories came with school boards. Across thirteen counties, pro-family candidates secured decisive wins, and in five counties, they flipped school boards from leftist control to conservative majorities.
School boards that @1776ProjectPac flipped seats and won several conservative majorities:
- Bay
- Brevard
- Clay
- Duval
- Flager
- Hernando
- Hillsborough
- Martin
- Miami-Dade
- Okaloosa
- Polk
- Putnam
- Sarasota — Ryan James Girdusky (@RyanGirdusky) August 24, 2022
These outcomes served as a referendum on the activist assaults against our children, and the gains were hard fought and well deserved. But the assailants aren't exclusively on the left, and the battle is far from over.

When you have a strong conservative leader like DeSantis, other things fall into place in the state. The far left woke Dem school boards got clobbered Tuesday.
good for DeSantis
never heard of a governor getting involved in school board races
good move
NY 19. Pass it on. Doom, gloom. These elections don’t count. NY is representative of the entire country. /s
In the state of Florida, it is an ongoing fight to get the best people in public office.
Bigly.
Could be a harbinger.

Nobody got involved in school board races which is how they all got taken over by lefties.
Good move Governor!
Yay. A one yard gain.
And 74 yards to go.
Keep in mind, collectivists are always playing the long game.
But, but, many other Freepers have told me that DeSantis is a RINO because he didn’t personally stand in front of Mar-a-Lago’s doors to block the FBI raid on Trump! /s
