Heads up for Michigan Democrats

[tiredtoo]

Check your ballot for school board candidates. In Saginaw Township we have two seats open and 10 candidates. Did some searching on them and some have no general information at all. Could be a bunch of Whacko book burners trying to get control. Look closely.

1. So, where do you go to find out some background on school board members?

Just curious. I just got my ballot and need to research these people.

2. I did a google search of their names.

Also searched social media. Many were not found anywhere. No replies to questions from news or other sources. Those are put on my don't vote for list. I contacted my local Democratic headquarters and they provided me with two names recommended by teachers association. So I am all set now.

3. What I finally found online to be very helpful...

was the Michigan Education Association's recommendations. Needless to say, they were all Dems. It did help with community college board members, etc. where party affiliation isn't mentioned. Also, they had judge recommendations.
