Even if you didn&#8217;t&#8211;go, read, enjoy!<\/p>\n<p>My editor, Scott, thought it was particularly satisfying to run this story just before elections in the US. I agree. In my district we &#8220;only&#8221; have school board elections&#8211;but after listening to the candidates&#8217; forum, I have very strong opinions on those school board candidates. If you&#8217;re eligible to vote and able to get there, please remember to do so! November 7 if Election Day for most US districts&#8211;please check to see if there are local issues on your ballot even if you haven&#8217;t heard of anything larger scale. Local issues matter! Your vote makes a huge difference at the local level!
