"Conservative activists seeking to take over school boards around the country saw their momentum slow in this week’s elections after progressive groups organized rival campaigns targeting the normally sleepy local races.....Roughly a third of candidates endorsed by Moms for Liberty won Tuesday or were leading in contested races, according to a Wall Street Journal analysis. This was down from 45% in prior races."

Whatever leftism touches, it ruins.
another example of why the Chairwoman of the RNC must be replaced. 2016 was the only plus. She has been a consistent failure.
Thanks to the internet it is simply too easy to homeschool your kids today. There is no reason to send them to public school except for one of two reasons - you are very poor or you are lazy.
Public schools are a 19th century paradigm that outlived its usefulness in the early 21st century. Their primary function is threefold:
1. Supply jobs to over-educated college grads.
2. Indoctrinate a generation.
3. Supply free daycare to parents that have sold themselves into indentured slavery.
I’m telling you it’s the wealthy suburban women who leftist fools. They are selfish, depravely woke and only want to ensure they can kill their offspring in the event of inconvenience.
So our momentum slowed.
But we still have momentum.
We won in 35% of our races.
Which is 100 % more than we got three years ago.
The spin. It makes me nauseated.
“Thanks to the internet it is simply too easy to homeschool your kids today. There is no reason to send them to public school except for one of two reasons - you are very poor or you are lazy.”
Agreed and I’ve seen numerous articles of late to the effect that Public school districts are seeing a rapid decline in registration as more and more parents embrace either Home Schooling or private Academies or a combination of the two. And it’s not just “whites” or “Anglos”; increasingly Blacks are doing the same with their children as they see the Public Schools systems failing them.
I’m following the trends in Education to determine if, as a result of the Leftist take over of the Public systems, interest in and support for funding the Public systems will start to decline. I would expect that and I would expect to see ever increasing resistance to property taxes and bond proposals. However, it’s a topic complicated by the rain of Federal funding dollars that descends upon these Public Schools systems.
Not sure how this ends, except of course, ultimately as the GOP collapses nationwide and the US descends into a One Party Dictatorship, the Leftists will make Home Schooling and Private Education illegal.
Not sure if it’s “spin” or a trend and as more and more “Conservatives” flee the public schools systems, it could well be a trend...as they leave, they lose interest.
They gained in Indiana…
Just goes to the Indiana subreddit and watch all the wailing and gnashing of teeth that the “fascists” have taken over
“We won an alderman race on Long Island.” “We didn’t lose Kentucky. They always have Democrat governors there.”
It’s funny and pathetic.
The libs took over the university town school board. They talked about more money for education and helping teachers but they really just wanted men in the girls bathroom. The new HS they are building will not have bathrooms by sex, just generic bathrooms.
Absolutely correct.
My former good friend did not care one bit when I sent her video of Hunter Biden getting. a BJ from a Chinese hooker, It was online on Taiwan TV for a few days before the election and she saw it. I told her this makes Biden very very bribable, and she didn’t care. Loved Biden and even Kamala. Hated Trump. Probably still does, but I refuse to see her and blocked her number on my phone.
Not just for her politics, but for her personal insensitivity when my son died.
This is gonna take time. Hope the challengers to woke school boards are in this fight for the long haul — and get the support of Republican party bureaucrats, donors, and politicians.
You cannot be friends with a leftist, with rare exceptions.
Ping!.........................
Agree in general, However, I do have a good friend who gets all her news at MSNBC. We just don’t talk about politics except for my occasional dig about the economy. She can’t deny that.
IMHO, homeschooled kids will have a resume enhancer for jobs that work at home.
It’s a tug of war. We win a few we lose a few.
We have the majority of governorship.
We have the majority of the state legislatures.
We trade the presidency. We have the majority of the House. We split the Senate.
This is not pathetic. I’d like even more power but it’s not pathetic.
It is time for the grooming and child molesting to begin in earnest....
:-(
Too many Rs do not show up for any election that is not for President, then complain about things.
