School Boards are non partisan elected offices.
Oh yeah. Elected officials are non-partisan.
As if.
They are non partisan offices. You don't have to be affiliated with a party to vote for them. On our ballots in CA, their affiliation is not known without researching it.
They are people from the community. Doesn't get more non partisan than that.
That is beside the point. Elections are by nature partisan.
I live in Oakland, CA. Before every election, I receive mailers from the Democrat party with their recommendations for all of the elected postions, including School Board ones. I seriously doubt that Oakland is unique in this aspect.
