Why vote for the Davis school board incumbents? In one of the worst economic times in our countryÕs history, this current set of school board members running for re-election has shown continued strength and fortitude.
With these members, the school board has a depth of leadership to draw on in the coming months that is necessary to carry our district through the next round of slash-and-burn budget cuts from Sacramento. We know who they are and I know they are all committed to seeing us, and more pointedly, seeing our children through the difficult times ahead.
In my opinion, now is not the time to vote for a shake-up of the Davis school board, or to risk voting for a person who might be divisive. The current board has shown it can and does work together. We know this board will work together to solve the districtÕs state-imposed economic crisis.
To use a clichŽ: When the rubber hits the road, it is good to know how people will respond. To date, this current board has responded with leadership, commitment and a priority to keep our district solvent. Please consider voting for the incumbents Tuesday.
