For School Board

Here's who I'm probably supporting, unless I make a drastic change:

Peter Downs - outspoken critic of the current board majority. He has kids in the public schools.

Veronica O'Brien - while she certainly isn't perfect, she's been willing to stand up to the current board majority.

Flint Fowler - on the mayor's slate, yes, but also a pretty effective leader and well-known face for children, as head of the Herbert Hoover Boys & Girls Club.

Note: I actually voted for Nancy Galvin, after all, but nevertheless Fowler and O'Brien, as well as Bill Purdy, were the winners. Hopefully, Downs will try again.
